Max Eberl experienced frustration and despondence during Bayern Munich's pursuit of Chelsea attacker Nicolas Jackson. Eberl initially avoided closing the door publicly and stressed that transfers are only complete once signatures and medicals are done. Chelsea later informed Bayern they wanted Jackson back after an agreement and permission for a medical, requiring the player to return to Chelsea from Munich. Eberl described the situation as bittersweet and said clubs will revisit networks and contacts to find alternatives. Meanwhile Bayern faced FC Augsburg, overcame a slow start and midgame lapse, and secured a 3-2 victory with tactical adjustments and substitutions.
"Transfers are only finalized once the signatures are in place. He [Jackson] is there, and then we'll see. We'll take a closer look at it after the game and act accordingly. It's easy to understand: You negotiate, you reach an agreement, then comes the medical check, and extraordinary things still happen. I can't say what's going on now,"
"Chelsea have informed us that they want the player back - after we had reached an agreement yesterday and were given permission to conduct the medical. Now the situation is that the guy is in Munich and we have to send him back. That's the current state of affairs, I can't look into the future,"
Amid all of the transfer craziness surrounding Bayern Munich's work with Chelsea over a loan deal for Nicolas Jackson, there was an actual game to be played - and Bayern Munich was up to the task even if a slow start and a midgame loss of focus might have given Die Fuggerstädter some hope. Let's get into Bayern Munich's 3-2 victory over FC Augsburg on this edition of the Bavarian Podcast Works - Postgame Show:
