"Jackson saw red Saturday and will now miss more than one match, with the ruling of the league making him sit out a further match. That said, he will now miss out against Union Berlin on March 21 and Freiburg on April 4, returning to play against St. Pauli on April 11."
"Jackson's suspension comes as a bad time for the Chelsea product. Prior to the disastrous stint he had against Bayer Leverkusen, the 24-year-old had actually strung together a few positive efforts. Now, the Senegalese attacker is set to miss the next Bundesliga games."
Nicolas Jackson, Bayern Munich's backup striker, has been suspended for two Bundesliga matches following a red card received during Saturday's 1-1 draw with Bayer Leverkusen. The DFB Sport Court imposed an additional match ban beyond the automatic suspension. Jackson will miss upcoming games against Union Berlin on March 21 and Freiburg on April 4, with his return scheduled for April 11 against St. Pauli. The 24-year-old Senegalese forward, a former Chelsea player, had recently shown positive form before the incident. As a backup option, his absence is unlikely to significantly impact Bayern Munich's squad composition, with starting striker Harry Kane expected to lead the attack.
