Aston Villa, Manchester United, Tottenham vying for Nicolas Jackson

Aston Villa, Manchester United and Tottenham are among those attentive to Nicolas Jackson’s future, with Bayern Munich not interested in signing him.

According to Team Talk, Nicolas Jackson could be on the move again when he returns to Chelsea from his Bayern Munich loan. The German giants are not keen on a permanent transfer, as the likes of Aston Villa, Manchester United and Tottenham are among those attentive to the Senegal international’s future.

Nicolas Jackson has not managed to shine at Bayern Munich despite all the drama that occurred before he joined the German giants. After agreeing on a loan deal, Chelsea recalled him as he was about to take his medical tests after Liam Delap suffered a hamstring injury. The Senegal international eventually made his way to join the Bavarians on a loan deal, which includes a conditional obligation to buy.

The obligation conditions stipulate that Jackson makes at least 40 starts as per reports, which seems unlikely. Bayern Munich have reportedly informed their intention not to sign him permanently, despite paying a stunning £14.3 million loan fee, with the buy obligation set at £56.2 million, which could have potentially taken the deal to the £70.5 million mark.

Jackson is set to make his return to Chelsea in the summer, although he may not have a future at Stamford Bridge any longer. The Blues are already active in the market to buy a new striker, as they are already looking for buyers to take Jackson off their books.

Aston Villa were interested in Jackson, and could be on alert for the 24-year-old Chelsea misfit’s situation heading into the summer. Their interest was before the January window as Jackson struggled for regular minutes at Bayern, but the Birmingham giants have since spent on signing Tammy Abraham from Besiktas.

Nicolas Jackson on the move again?

It appears to be the case that the 24-year-old Chelsea misfit will be on the move again, as more clubs are keeping close tabs. Among those are Manchester United and Tottenham, with the former interested even before Jackson joined Bayern Munich on loan.

The chances of doing business with Manchester United are high, as Chelsea and the Red Devils did have some transfers of players, such as Jadon Sancho and Alejandro Garnacho. However, the same cannot be said about Tottenham, although a compelling offer from their London rivals could change that trajectory.
