Bayern Munich's sporting director, Max Eberl, has confirmed the club will not exercise the buy-out clause for Senegalese forward Nicolas Jackson. Following the conclusion of his one-year loan spell, the player will return to Chelsea.
"We will not activate the permanent transfer clause for Jackson," Eberl stated in an interview with German television. He clarified that the option was not automatic and the decision is final.
The striker arrived at the Allianz Arena in September on a season-long loan from Chelsea. Although he spent most of the campaign as Harry Kane's backup, Jackson managed to score seven goals in 20 Bundesliga appearances. He showcased excellent form towards the end of the season, starting and scoring in each of Bayern's last three league matches. One of his goals initiated the impressive 4-3 comeback victory away at Mainz yesterday.
