It is looking increasingly likely that Chelsea’s time with Nicolas Jackson is not coming to an end with his spell at Bayern Munich.
After the Bundesliga champions made a late deal to bring Jackson in on loan, he has not nailed down a starting spot, and they are looking unlikely to trigger a deal to sign him on a permanent basis.
Jackson is not keen on a Chelsea return, and the Blues have moved another direction with the signings of Liam Delap and Joao Pedro.
Should Chelsea sell Enzo Fernandez to buy Elliot Anderson?
This means that the club are likely going to have to be looking for a new permanent suitor for the Senegal international this summer, who will be looking to further prove his abilities at the upcoming African Cup of Nations.

When looking at sides around Europe who are in desperate need of a striker to revamp their attack, Juventus spring to mind. The Italian side have just 14 goals in 10 Serie A games this season.
They are also struggling greatly in the Champions League. Juventus currently sit outside of the play-off spots, and without a win in their first four games.
Their top scorer this season is Dusan Vlahovic, with six goals, however talks continue to link him with a move away from the club. Chelsea are one of the sides who have been mentioned as a potential landing spot.
This could only further push them in the direction of Jackson, and Chelsea could make sure the price wouldn’t be too high with a signing of their own from The Old Lady.

Chelsea have been strongly linked to Kenan Yildiz for a number of months now, with him establishing himself as one of the best young wingers in the world.
Originally, it was believed that he was looking to extend his stay with the Italian side, however a spanner has been thrown into those works.
Yildiz’s people have reached out to Chelsea to discuss a potential deal after talks over a new deal have hit a wall, with the Blues likely on red alert over a potential deal.
The Blues would likely love to engage in some kind of swap deal that involves Jackson, and he could actually help solve Juventus’ biggest issue in front of goal in the process.
