Chelsea striker Nicolas Jackson has reportedly reached an agreement with Bayern Munich over contract terms for a permanent transfer. The Senegal international moved to the Allianz Arena on a season-long loan on transfer deadline day after two eventful years at Stamford Bridge.German publication BILD has revealed (via Metro) that Jackson has held talks with Bayern Munich and has an agreement in place for a five-year deal with the Bundesliga giants. The club have secured the agreement with the 24-year-old to prevent any other teams from swooping in to sign him, and they will now take their time before negotiating with Chelsea.Formerly of Villarreal, Jackson exited Stamford Bridge this summer in a move that had a lot of drama. The striker was permitted to leave after the club negotiated a huge loan fee with Vincent Kompany's side, but was then recalled after a serious injury to Liam Delap. He refused to budge, and after another round of negotiations, a deal was struck for him to move to Germany for a bigger loan fee and a conditional obligation to buy.Bayern Munich's honorary president Uli Hoeness hinted that the club will not sign Jackson permanently, as he will not meet the 40 starts criteria for a permanent deal. The club are, however, prepared to enter into talks with Chelsea to have them lower their €65 million demand for the striker, whose deal with them runs until 2033.Nicolas Jackson has played thrice for Bayern Munich since his move, with his first start coming against Hoffenheim last weekend. Chelsea's decision to sign Emanuel Emegha for next season symbolizes that they have moved on from the Senegal striker, and he likely has no future at Stamford Bridge.Chelsea star aiming for 2026 return from injury - ReportsChelsea striker Liam Delap is reportedly looking to return to action for the Blues in the new year following his hamstring injury.
