Bayern's Uli Hoeness Shocks with Surprising Declaration
In a stunning revelation, Bayern Munich chief Uli Hoeness has declared that Nicolas Jackson will return to Chelsea next summer, confirming that he will 'definitely not' sign a permanent contract with the Bundesliga giants.
Jackson's journey appears to have taken a detour after his loan move to Bayern on transfer deadline day, marking what seemed to be the end of his stint at Stamford Bridge.
Surprising Loan Agreement Revealed
Reports indicate that Bayern Munich shelled out an initial £14 million to secure Jackson on loan for the remainder of the 2025/26 season. If Jackson meets a specific criteria, the Bavarians would have the option to sign him permanently next summer for £56 million.
This initially seemed like a savvy move from Chelsea, especially since they acquired Jackson for a mere £32 million two years prior. However, that plan is now clouded after Hoeness stated that Jackson would need to start a staggering 40 games for a permanent contract to materialize—something he firmly believes won't happen, particularly with Harry Kane dominating the lineup.
Loan Fee Breakdown Exposed
Hoeness went on to clarify that Bayern actually paid £12 million for Jackson's loan. Interestingly, Jackson and his representatives opted to cover an additional £2 million of the fee.
"The player and his agent contribute for €3 million, so we pay €13.5 million as a loan fee," he disclosed on German TV channel SPORT1.
Jackson Embraces Bayern Adventure
Despite the uncertainty surrounding his future, Jackson feels optimistic about his transfer. "I’m really happy to now be part of this great club. Bayern is one of the best clubs in the world," he expressed.
Reflecting on his time at Chelsea, Jackson acknowledged both the excitement of joining Bayern and the bittersweet nature of leaving Stamford Bridge. "I was a little sad to leave Chelsea, my teammates, and the fans. I've experienced so many strong emotions there," he added.
Jackson is eager to contribute to the Bavarian side's success, stating, "Now I’m 100% focused on my new project and can’t wait to experience the incredible atmosphere at the Allianz Arena."
