"Chelsea striker Nicolas Jackson is set to join Bayern Munich on loan with an option to buy. The Blues will receive an initial loan fee of 13m (15m euros) while the German champions have a 56.2m (65m euro) purchase option for the Senegal forward. Jackson, 24, has already agreed a pre-contract with Bayern and has been given permission to travel to Germany to complete the move."
"The former Villarreal player has a solid scoring record of 24 goals from 65 Premier League appearances. But he has under-performed his expected goals total by seven over the past two years, the second-most of any player in the top flight. A key factor has been his record in what Opta define as 'big chances'. Jackson has scored just 18 of 61 such opportunities (29%), a relatively low conversion rate compared to other top forwards."
Nicolas Jackson is set to move to Bayern Munich on loan with an option to buy. Chelsea will receive an initial loan fee of £13m (€15m) and Bayern hold a £56.2m (€65m) purchase option; a sell-on clause is included. Jackson, 24, has agreed a pre-contract and has been given permission to travel to Germany. His Chelsea minutes have been limited after summer signings Joao Pedro and Liam Delap, and he last played as a substitute in the Club World Cup semi-final win over Fluminense in July. He has 24 Premier League goals from 65 appearances but has underperformed his expected goals by seven over two years and converted only 18 of 61 Opta-defined 'big chances' (29%).
