Chelsea and Bayern Munich are reportedly both in talks today about the transfer of Nicolas Jackson, with Fabrizio Romano and Ben Jacobs providing updates.
The Senegal international looks to be nearing a move away from Stamford Bridge after a slightly underwhelming spell in west London.
Jackson has a record of 30 goals in 81 games in total for Chelsea, which is not the worst, but also not quite the elite level the Blues will have expected.
Joao Pedro and Liam Delap also both joined Chelsea this summer, pushing Jackson down in the pecking order.
See below as Romano has now posted about Jackson and Bayern contacts happening today…
