Reports from German outlets Kicker and Bild, compiled by @iMiaSanMia, indicate Bayern Munich evaluated Nicolas Jackson and Christopher Nkunku as potential signings. Bayern executives expressed reservations about Christopher Nkunku, suggesting that even a loan move would not automatically gain full approval. Nicolas Jackson was discussed at a supervisory board meeting and his loan was approved. Chelsea demands a double-digit million euro loan fee. Jackson earns around €6m gross per year at Chelsea, and Bayern would cover that salary if the deal proceeds. The substantial loan fee functions as a mini-transfer, while Jackson's relatively low salary aids Bayern's cost-cutting objectives. Jackson's sporting suitability remains to be proven.
It isn't only a matter of finances, though that plays a part.

Chelsea want a double-digit million loan fee. Jackson earns around €6m gross per year at Chelsea, which is to be covered by Bayern if a deal is agreed [@altobelli13, @cfbayern] It isn't very unusual to see a report claiming that Bayern is sniffing their noses at a player for not being up to standard. As for the finances involved in the deal, the ample loan fee makes this a mini-transfer of sorts, but Jackson's low-range salary for the year should help Bayern in its cost-cutting
