"A single hamstring injury in the 14th minute of a Premier League game and poof, there goes the £69.2million package you agreed with Bayern Munich for Nicolas Jackson. There goes the private flight that was paid for. It was a waste, another one is required for the return. There go all those hours that went into negotiating a £12.9m loan fee with a £56.3m option, not forgetting the sell-on clause that Chelsea would have retained."
"Jackson's camp were still working hard to convince Chelsea to sanction their client's exit on Saturday evening and it is true that money talks. If Bayern suddenly promise to sign him permanently, for example, who knows what will happen."
A hamstring injury to Nicolas Jackson in the 14th minute collapsed a planned £69.2m Bayern Munich package, wasting a paid private flight and negotiated terms including a £12.9m loan fee and £56.3m option plus a retained sell-on clause. Bayern had arranged long-term accommodation in Munich as Jackson arrived with an entourage including advisor Diomansy Kamara, who posted a cryptic Instagram message. Jackson's camp continued to press Chelsea while Bayern could still pursue a permanent signing. Chelsea revoked permission for a medical and demanded his immediate return, citing a contract through 2033 and raising striker-selection concerns.
