Bayern Munich have announced the loan signing of Nicolas Jackson from Chelsea.
The Senegal striker has managed to put pen to paper on an initially temporary move to Germany, despite the Blues trying to recall him while undergoing a medical after Saturday’s injury to Liam Delap.
Instead, Jackson will link up with Harry Kane and Co at the Allianz in one of the most expensive loan deals of all time.
It is believed that Bayern have an option to buy the forward after his term finishes for around €80million.
Speaking to the club’s media for the first time, Jackson said: “I’m really happy to now be part of this great club.
“Bayern is one of the best clubs in the world. Everyone knows the names of the legends who’ve played here and knows that this club stands for the greatest success.
“I’ve got big goals and dreams here and will give my all to help Bayern win further titles.”
Bayern sporting director Christoph Freund added: “Nicolas will add another dimension to our attacking play.
“He covers a wide range of areas. He brings a lot of speed, is dangerous in front of goal and looks for ways to get in behind the defence for the good of the team.
“He is also an open, positive guy and will have no trouble settling into our team.”
