Chelsea will not recall Nicolas Jackson from Bayern Munich loan in January
Nicolas Jackson joined Bayern Munich from Chelsea during the summer transfer window.
According to Football Insider, Chelsea will not recall the player in January. The 24-year-old will continue at the German club until the end of the season.
Jackson was allowed to leave the club at the start of the season after Chelsea signed two quality strikers. He would have struggled for regular opportunities at the London club, and he decided to move on in search of more opportunities. However, he has been a secondary option to Harry Kane at the German club.
Jackson will be hoping to secure a permanent move away from Chelsea at the end of the season. It will be interesting to see where he ends up. The 24-year-old has shown his ability with Chelsea in the past, and there is no doubt that he could be a quality acquisition for any team. He should look to join a club where he will play regularly and compete at a high level.
The player is still only 24, and he has a lot to offer at the highest level. Joining the right team could bring out the best in the player. It seems unlikely that he will continue at the German club beyond this season. He will not be the first-choice striker at Bayern Munich as long as Kane is at the club.
Meanwhile, Chelsea will look to recoup as much as possible for him and invest the proceeds into the playing squad. Jackson will not get opportunities at the London club in the future, and it makes sense for Chelsea to cash in on him.
The 24-year-old has previously shown his quality in Spain as well. There is unlikely to be any shortage of clubs hoping to sign him at the end of the season. It will be interesting to see where he ends up.
It remains to be seen whether he can impress between now and the end of the season. It could help him secure a big move in the summer.
