LOAN BACKFIRE: BAYERN SNUBS NICOLAS JACKSON, £70M PROBLEM FOR CHELSEA.
Bayern Munich will not sign Chelsea loanee Nicolas Jackson permanently, reports confirm. The £56.2m clause requires 40 starts, but with only 5 so far and Harry Kane ahead, Jackson is expected to return to Stamford Bridge next summer.

According to rumours, Bayern Munich has decided how to handle Chelsea loanee Nicolas Jackson at Allianz Arena, even if they have the opportunity to sign him permanently.
On the day of the summer transfer window deadline, Jackson made a spectacular loan move to Bayern.
Despite Liam Delap's hamstring injury at the time, the 24-year-old insisted on joining the German team, forcing Chelsea to bring up Marc Guiu from his loan at Sunderland.
The Chelsea-Bayern deal is also highly rare
In addition to the £14.3 million loan fee, the two clubs also agreed to require the striker to make 40 starts during his loan period in order to sign him permanently for £56.2 million, according to German writer Christian Falk via CFBayernInsider.
Falk added that although Bayern does not now want to activate the provision, they do not have any plans to send Jackson back to Chelsea in January.
Jackson has made 12 appearances for Bayern so far in all competitions, but just five of his appearances were as a starter.
This implies that before the rumoured clause takes effect and Bayern is required to contract Jackson long-term, he will need to start 35 more games.
Given that Harry Kane, who has already scored 22 goals for Bayern this season across all competitions, is also a member of the team, the striker's lack of starts makes perfect sense.
Jackson, by contrast, has only scored three goals for Bayern thus far.
Furthermore, according to the source, Bayern has begun to pursue other possible striker targets, including Franculino Dju of FC Midtjylland and Dusan Vlahovic of Juventus.
Jackson will therefore probably rejoin Chelsea at the end of the current campaign.
Maresca's remarks regarding Jackson
Naturally, there is a chance that Blues head coach Enzo Maresca may consent to include the former Villarreal striker in his team again for the upcoming campaign.
Nevertheless, it appears from Maresca's most recent statement that he did not want three strikers vying for his team's starting position.
In September, the Italian responded, "Because we signed two strikers," when asked why Jackson had left.
"Joao Pedro and Liam Delap. I believe that two strikers is a sufficient quantity. This is the cause.
Also, keep in mind that Chelsea has two young strikers who are eager for opportunities: Tyrique George and Guiu.
"I expressed my gratitude to Nico the other day," Maresca continued.
"After he departed the club, I texted him to wish him luck and to thank him for the previous season. Nico is a decent man. He did a terrific job dealing with us.
This might be a long-term problem until the club finds a solution, as Jackson signed a new contract with Chelsea last year that ties him to the team until 2033.
LENNART KARL TIPPED FOR NEW BAYERN MUNICH DEAL SOON
Bayern Munich are already planning a new, improved contract for teenage sensation Lennart Karl just months after his last extension. The club is preparing a long-term pathway for the 17-year-old following his impressive performances.

After all the excitement surrounding Lennart Karl of Bayern Munich this season, it is easy to forget that he had been repeatedly connected to leaving the team in previous years. Karl was nearing the end of his contract, and teams like Real Madrid and Ajax had been linked to a bid for the former Eintracht Frankfurt youth star. Just before the 2025–2026 season, he eventually signed a contract with Bayern, committing to the team for the near future with less than a year left on it.
The German champions may already be considering offering him a new deal as a reward. Fabrizio Romano undoubtedly raises the possibility that this is the case:
Because of Lennart Karl's recent performances, Bayern is quite pleased with him and, only a few months after he signed a new contract, they are already talking about the potential of another one by altering its structure. Karl's future path is being prepared by Bayern.
It should be mentioned, of course, that Karl was always likely to get a second contract extension quickly. He was unable to sign for more than three years because he was only 17 when he signed his most recent contract with Bayern and was not yet legally an adult. His birthday is in February, and like Jamal Musiala, he is likely to sign a new deal with Bayern that will keep him there for up to five years once he turns eighteen.
HARRY KANE BREAKS SILENCE ON BARCELONA TALK REVEALING HE’LL DECIDE SOON
Barcelona's Robert Lewandowski will decide his future "soon" as his contract expires. With the club eyeing Harry Kane as his replacement, will the veteran striker stay or seek a new challenge? Get the latest transfer news.

Despite rumours that Harry Kane is being considered to succeed him, Barcelona star Robert Lewandowski stated that he will decide on his future "soon." Barca is preparing for life without the 37-year-old Lewandowski as his contract with the team expires at the conclusion of this season.
Kane should only have a year left on his Bayern Munich contract by June, at which point a £57 million release clause will be activated. Barcelona is expected to make a move, although Tottenham, the former team, has first refusal.
The La Liga champions consider 32-year-old Kane to be the perfect replacement for Lewandowski, whom the England captain essentially replaced at Bayern this week. However, it is not ruled out that Barcelona might offer Lewandowski a new contract because Kane has stated publicly that he is willing to extend his contract with the German powerhouses.
The striker, who scored a hat-trick in Barcelona's most recent game against Celta Vigo, has not made up his mind, which has added to the uncertainty. Before helping to set up the first goal in Poland's 1-1 draw with the Netherlands on Friday, Lewandowski told TVP Sport, "I will soon be ready to determine which road I want to take and I will see what my alternatives are."
"I am at ease. In a few months, I have no idea where I will be or what I want to do. I am not in a rush, and I do not have to accomplish anything."
Lewandowski is happy at Barca, and he and his family are established in Spain, despite the veteran acknowledging that he is "nearing the end" of his career. "Knowing that there are so many young boys over 18 at Barcelona definitely encourages me," he continued.
"They provide me with a significant energy boost. I am really at ease with them. I recall what I did at their age when I was a teenager. Some of my teammates' parents are younger than myself. They are like fathers to me. It is humorous but really uplifting.

"I had a really fantastic season last year. I won multiple trophies and scored a lot of goals, which attests to my excellent skill.
"Even though I am nearing the conclusion of my football career, I want to make the most of it both emotionally and athletically. I want to make the most of this moment and savour it."
