"It's not a €16.5 million loan fee, because the player and his agent [Ali Barat] are contributing €3 million, so that leaves €13.5 million. And there will definitely not be a permanent contract. That only happens if he plays 40 games from the start. He will never do that."
"Very strong emotions, but not for the reasons you might think. I was simply very happy to sign for one of the biggest clubs in the world, to discover another league and other great players. At the same time, I was a bit sad to leave Chelsea, my teammates, and the fans."
Nicolas Jackson completed a season-long loan move to Bayern Munich that includes an obligation to buy. The reported €16.5 million fee is effectively reduced by a €3 million contribution from the player and his agent, leaving €13.5 million for the clubs. FC Bayern chief Uli Hoeneß stated that a permanent contract will only trigger if Jackson starts 40 games, a threshold Hoeneß doubts he will reach. Jackson expressed mixed emotions, celebrating the chance to join a top club and experience a new league while feeling sad to leave Chelsea, teammates, and fans. Jacksons long-term future at Bayern beyond 2026 remains uncertain.
