Nicolas Jackson, a 24-year-old Senegalese national footballer plays as a forward for the defending Bundesliga champions Bayern Munich on loan from the Premier League giants Chelsea. Nicolas Jackson joined Chelsea in 2023 for £32m. The Senegalese scored 30 goals and provided 12 assists for the Blues in the previous two seasons for the Blues.
However, Chelsea were still not impressed and felt that they needed reinforcements in the squad due to which they ended up signing Joao Pedro and Liam Delap, which meant that Jackson would lose his place in the team. In order for Nicolas Jackson to get game time throughout the season, Chelsea decided to sell the 24-year-old to Bayern Munich on a season loan in order to continue performing in a different environment.
Everyone welcomed me very well. I feel at home: Nicolas Jackson
Nicolas Jackson has announced himself to the Bayern fans by registering his first goal and assist yesterday for the first time since joining the club on the deadline day. These contributions in the Champions league fixture against Cyprus based football team Pafos. Bayern fans were absolutely elated with the flair he added to the team and his creativity. In the post match presentation, when asked about his future, Nicolas Jackson revealed that, “I'm very happy here, everyone welcomed me very well. I feel at home”.
The 24-year-old further said, “We'll see what the future brings.” He is currently enjoying his life in Germany and the whole team is backing him to perform well. It will be interesting to see if Chelsea will call him back next season once the loan expires. Bayern will be keen to purchase him on a permanent deal as he adds a significant boost to their squad depth. Only time will tell in which Club Jackson will end up following the end of this season.
