Bayern Munich has emerged as one of several clubs eyeing a move for Chelsea striker Nicolas Jackson as the summer transfer window nears its close. The 24-year-old Senegalese forward has reportedly agreed to personal terms with the Bundesliga giants, who are keen on securing a loan deal to bolster their attacking options behind Harry Kane.
However, Chelsea's £80m valuation for a permanent transfer, or their preference for a loan with an obligation to buy, has created a stumbling block in negotiations.
Jackson, who joined Chelsea from Villarreal in 2023, has scored 30 goals and provided 12 assists in 81 appearances but has fallen down the pecking order under manager Enzo Maresca following the arrivals of Liam Delap and Joao Pedro.
Alongside Bayern, Premier League sides Newcastle United and Aston Villa, as well as Serie A clubs AC Milan and Juventus, are also monitoring the situation, with Chelsea open to offers before the transfer deadline.
The interest from multiple clubs underscores Jackson’s potential, but his next destination remains uncertain as Chelsea aims to streamline their squad.
