Nicolas Jackson's days as a Bayern Munich player already appear numbered, and he hasn't even made his debut yet.
The Senegal striker joined the German giants on loan from Chelsea on deadline day this summer.

The move was a protracted one with his original deal being cancelled by the Blues after an injury to Liam Delap.
Jackson had been in Munich ready to seal the deal and eventually got his transfer over the line as the west Londoners opted to recall Marc Guiu from Sunderland.
The second deal included an obligation to sign the former Villarreal star for £56.2million should certain clauses be met.
But the 24-year-old's long-term future has already been thrown into doubt by Bayern Munich.

Their honorary president was a guest on SPORT1 and revealed all about the deal.
Hoeness: "It's not a €16.5m loan fee, because the player and his agent are contributing €3m, so that leaves €13.5m.
"There will definitely not be a permanent contract. That only happens if he plays 40 games from the start. He will never do that"
To put it into context, England captain Harry Kane, their current starting striker, made just 42 starts last term.
Meanwhile, Jackson managed 38 appearances in total for the Blues across the entirety of the campaign.
He managed 13 goals in all competitions with 10 coming in the Premier League.

Jackson dropped down the pecking order swiftly this summer on the back of a tumultuous two months which saw two red cards in five games.
His first came in a 2-0 loss to Newcastle United in the Premier League for a deliberate elbow.
The second came in the 3-1 loss to Flamengo at the Club World Cup, where a reckless challenge saw him given his marching orders.
This, combined with the arrivals of Joao Pedro from Brighton and Delap from Ipswich Town, saw him made surplus to requirements.
Jackson doesn't have the same issue at Bayern but will still have to get past Kane who will start the majority of games unless injured or suspended.
That's down to a raft of exits, with Thomas Muller and Mathys Tel both leaving the club, along with wingers Leroy Sane and Kingsley Coman.

Upon Jackson's arrival at the Bundesliga behemoths, he said: "I’m really happy to now be part of this great club. Bayern is one of the best clubs in the world.
