Bayern Munich set to take decision on Nicolas Jackson future

Nicolas Jackson’s time at Bayern Munich appears to be heading towards a clear conclusion, with the Bundesliga giants increasingly unlikely to make his move permanent.

The Chelsea striker joined Bayern on a season-long loan ahead of the 2025/26 campaign, seen as a short-term attacking option and cover rather than a long-term successor in their forward line. The deal included conditions that could have led to a permanent transfer, those requirements now look difficult to meet as the season progresses.

Jackson has found it difficult to break into the first team since he joned the Bundesliga Champions during the 2025 summer transfer window. Bayern’s attack continues to revolve around established names, limiting the Senegal international largely to substitute appearances and rotation roles.

Although he has shown flashes of his pace and work rate, consistency and game time have been lacking, making it unlikely he will reach the appearance threshold needed to trigger any obligation or strong desire from Bayern to keep him beyond the loan spell.

The club is expected to explore other attacking profiles that better fit their long-term sporting strategy, while Jackson is viewed as a player who may benefit from a move where he can be a more regular starter.

Chelsea, meanwhile, are monitoring the situation closely and are expected to reassess his role once he returns at the end of the season. As things stand, the most probable outcome is Jackson’s departure from Bayern when his loan expires.

A permanent stay in Munich looks highly unlikely, opening the door for a return to Chelsea or a fresh transfer elsewhere in Europe or beyond in the summer of 2026. For Jackson, the next few months will be crucial as he looks to rebuild momentum and position himself for the next chapter of his career
