Bayern Munich exec Max Eberl doing the best he can given circumstances
Briefly

Borussia Mönchengladbach cannot finalize a deal for Nicolas Jackson because the contract remains unsigned. The club wanted to complete the medical and sign the contract but cannot proceed without Chelsea's signature. The player and his agent will be told to return because no contract is in place. The club has 48 hours remaining before the deadline to pursue alternatives. The situation could not be planned for, so the club will attempt to find a solution and continue to consider possible actions. Options include executing a loan signing or deciding to take no action. Efforts to obtain approval for a permanent transfer remain constrained by deadlines.
First of all, I'm not in a position to act. We would have liked to act, we would have liked to have done the medical and signed the contract. That's not possible now, and we'll tell the player and his agent that they have to go back because Chelsea... We simply don't have a signed contract.
We have 48 hours left. This isn't a situation we could really plan for, but we'll try to find a solution. We're still considering things, and as long as we can act, we'll consider whether to act and how to act. If we decide that we'll do nothing, then that's a decision, but first we still have the opportunity to decide, and we'll try to do that as best we can.
I have a task [signing a player on loan] and I'm trying to implement it.
