FC Bayern Munich have officially confirmed the signing of Nicolas Jackson on a season-long loan from Chelsea. The 24-year-old Senegal international will wear the No.11 shirt for the 2025/26 season at the Allianz Arena.

The transfer was on the brink of collapse after Chelsea lost young striker Liam Delap and initially requested Jackson to return to London. However, Bayern pushed through the deal in the final hours of the transfer window, securing the forward just in time.

Jackson joined Chelsea in the summer of 2023 and has since scored 30 goals in 81 appearances for the London club across all competitions.
