Overview
- Jackson played 90 minutes and registered a goal and an assist in Bayern’s 5-1 Champions League win over Pafos, his first strike for the club.
- Vincent Kompany paired Jackson with Harry Kane operating deeper, and the duo each produced two goal contributions in an effective partnership.
- The Chelsea forward is on a season-long loan that reportedly carries a roughly £56m purchase obligation if he reaches 40 starts, a threshold viewed as unlikely this season.
- TBR Football reports Bayern have told Jackson they intend to sign him permanently even if the clause is not triggered, which contrasts with Uli Hoeneß’s earlier claim he would return to Chelsea.
- Jackson said he feels at home in Munich, while Football Insider highlights that Delap’s injury and doubts over Marc Guiu could push Chelsea to seek another striker next summer.
