Nicolas Jackson To See Out Bayern Loan as Purchase Decision Shifts to Summer

A high appearance-triggered obligation to buy keeps Bayern's choice on hold until season's end.

Overview

  • Jackson has no plans to cut short his stay in Munich and is not seeking a January move, according to the Evening Standard.
  • Reports indicate Bayern are currently not intending to activate the permanent clause, which is valued at about £56.2m after a £14.3m loan fee.
  • The obligation to buy is understood to hinge on an appearance threshold believed to be around 40 starts, making his playing time a key factor.
  • He has 12 appearances and three goals so far, with five starts, featuring both as the centre-forward and in a deeper role behind Harry Kane.
  • Chelsea’s striker plans, including the early-season recall of Marc Guiu and a deal for Emmanuel Emegha to join next summer, further narrow any path back mid-season.
