Only one issue stands between Bayern Munich and Chelsea attacker Nicolas Jackson per Sky Germany journalist Florian Plettenberg — whether or not a loan would include an option to buy clause or an obligation to buy condition:

It’s still being discussed whether an option to buy or an obligation to buy will be included in the loan deal.

Before Bayern Munich’s 3-2 DFB-Pokal win over SV Wehen Wiesbaden, board member for sport Max Eberl did not hide his interest in Jackson (per ZDF via @iMiaSanMia):

🗣️ Max Eberl was asked about Nicolas Jackson before the game: “If we find a player who is physically ready, who can score goals and make assists, who already has experience – we would be happy to loan that player.”

Can Jackson do that?

Eberl: “When I read his CV, he can do it.”

Okay, then…

Anyway, Fabrizio Romano is reporting that nothing is formally done yet between Bayern Munich and Chelsea as well:

🚨 FC Bayern keep pushing to close Nico Jackson deal but there’s still nothing agreed with Chelsea as of tonight.

CFC want to wait the end of the Alexander Isak saga before picking best option for Jackson. 👀🧩

Bayern will insist again in next 24h.

Bayern Munich traveled to Frankfurt to take on SV Wehen Wiesbaden in the DFB-Pokal.

The home side was game and did give Bayern Munich a battle. Sure, the Bavarians were deeper, quicker, stronger, and better, but the 3.Liga side was not going to go down easy in what was an entertaining match. Bayern Munich ultimately won 3-2.
