Journalist James Benge has claimed that Bayern Munich may replace Nicolas Jackson with another former Chelsea player in the form of Arsenal’s Kai Havertz (Extra Time podcast).
“Yeah, my understanding on Havertz and Bayern is that there is interest there. Nothing more than that that I’ve heard at the moment, but that is one to monitor in the summer.
“Because of course, Nicholas Jackson is going, so he might figure as a depth piece at buy-in, like someone that can cover a bit for Musiala and a bit for Kane. But like you say, it would all be about the deal on offer and who are Arsenal flipping him into, because if you lose Havertz and Jesus, that’s two forwards you need to replace them with, and then you’re probably looking at losing Martinelli and or Trossard as well.
“And you don’t want to come into this season having churned your whole front line as much as emotionally as fans you want that. You don’t want to be starting from scratch all over again.”
