Chelsea loanee Nicolas Jackson is aiming to impress at Bayern Munich. From the words of his agent, it sounds like he would really like to convert his Germany stay into a permanent one.
“You know, the season is long,” said Jackson’s agent, Ali Barat, in comments captured by RMC Sport (via @iMiaSanMia). “They [FC Bayern] have an obligation to buy if he plays 40 games, but they also have a €65m option to buy. So I think if Nico Jackson performs this season, given the current prices for strikers, at €65 million
in my opinion, they should buy him. It all depends on how Jackson fits in and performs. But normally, with the potential he has, I don’t think they’ll have a problem paying the €65million at the end of the season.”
Well…Jackson did not have the most influential time out in his first start for Bayern on Saturday against TSG Hoffenheim, barely getting involved at all and rarely making a threatening pass or touch or run. And if there is anything we know about Bayern it is that the club will be hesitant to pay a big fee — or salary — for almost any player.
But the Chelsea man will have a lot more time this season to show what he can do.
