Bayern Munich are interested in signing Chelsea striker Nicolas Jackson as long as “a loan is possible”, according to Sky Germany reporter Florian Plettenberg.
The journalist was the first to report on the Bundesliga club’s interest in the Senegalese international earlier this month, and the likes of Fabrizio Romano have since confirmed that they are after the player. However, fans on X think that the Blues won’t be interested in offloading Jackson on a temporary basis:
not a CHANCE

They buy Diaz from Liverpool for a whooping €70m and have the audacity to moot a loan deal! The disrespect is just something else

Jackson was absent from the matchday squad against West Ham
Head coach Enzo Maresca confirmed in the build-up to the London derby that the 24-year-old would not be involved.
It has been known for several weeks that Jackson is surplus to requirements and he has been exploring moves away from Stamford Bridge.
The Chelsea forward does have other suitors
Both Aston Villa and Newcastle have made further enquiries about Jackson in recent days. Villa boss Unai Emery is a big fan of the player, having worked with him before at Villarreal. The Magpies, meanwhile, are seeking a replacement for Alexander Isak.
The Senegalese star’s asking price is said to be as high as £80m, but it is likely that Chelsea would compromise on that valuation to sanction his departure before September 1st.
