Chelsea striker Nicolas Jackson has been linked with a move away from the club, and he wants to continue in the Premier League.
According to a report from The Sun, Bayern Munich have been hoping to sign Nicolas Jackson, but the 24-year-old prefers to stay in the Premier League, which will come as a blow to the Bundesliga champions.
Meanwhile, Newcastle United are keen on landing the Chelsea striker, and it remains to be seen whether they can wrap up the move. Alexander Isak has been linked with Liverpool, and he is likely to leave Newcastle United this summer.
The Tyneside outfit will need to replace him, and Nicolas Jackson could prove to be a useful addition. Though not a prolific goalscorer, he has been quite effective for Chelsea, and there is no doubt he would be an important player for Newcastle United if he joins the club.
It will be interesting to see if Newcastle United can reach an agreement with Chelsea in the coming weeks. The Magpies have secured Champions League qualification for the upcoming campaign, and they have quality players at their disposal, making them an attractive destination for Jackson. The player will look to prove himself in the Premier League and compete at a high level. Moving to Newcastle would be ideal for him.
Jackson would be a quality addition
Newcastle United have the finances to get the deal across the line for Nicolas Jackson. The 2024/25 EFL Cup winners have failed with multiple approaches for quality strikers this summer, but they do have the money needed for signings. It remains to be seen whether they can convince Jackson to join the club. He is well settled in the Premier League and could make an instant impact.
It will be interesting to see if Bayern Munich decide to move on to other targets. The Bavarian giants have been overly dependent on Harry Kane for goals and need more support in attack, and a new striker would be ideal.
Meanwhile, Chelsea have already signed Liam Delap and Joao Pedro this summer. Nicolas Jackson is unlikely to get regular game time, and it makes sense for him to move on, as he would not want to sit on the bench at Chelsea at this stage of his career. Newcastle United will be able to provide him with the opportunities he needs, and the move could be suitable for all parties.
