"Chelsea had agreed to send Nicolas Jackson on loan to Bayern Munich for the remainder of the campaign, but they have now decided to perform a U-turn. The Blues have cancelled the loan move for the 24-year-old striker, and he will now return to London following the injury blow to Liam Delap. The Chelsea striker picked up an injury against Fulham, and he is set to be sidelined for a couple of months."
"According to David Ornstein from The Athletic, the player had travelled to Germany to complete his move to the Bundesliga club, but they have requested him to return to London. They have already informed the German champions that they will not proceed with the loan deal. It makes sense for them to cancel the deal. Chelsea are currently left with Joao Pedro as the only striking option, and they need more depth in the squad."
"The Senegal International will now hope for ample opportunities at the London club. It remains to be seen whether he can make the most of the chances and convince Enzo Maresca to give him regular opportunities. The 24-year-old has shown his quality with Chelsea, and there is no doubt that he could be an important player for them during the absence of Delap."
Chelsea cancelled Nicolas Jackson's loan move to Bayern Munich and recalled the 24-year-old to London after Liam Delap sustained an injury against Fulham. Jackson had travelled to Germany to complete the loan, but Bayern informed Chelsea they would not proceed. With Joao Pedro currently the only senior striker available, Chelsea needed additional depth for the coming months. Jackson is expected to receive more playing opportunities and may compete for regular starts under Enzo Maresca. The club will rely on Jackson's quality during Delap's absence as they aim to contend for major trophies despite concerns over striking depth.
