Everton to consider signing Nicolas Jackson after Bayern Munich loan

Senegalese striker Nicolas Jackson is reportedly on the radar of English Premier League outfit Everton.

The 24-year-old forward joined the German champions on deadline day and has since registered three goals and one assist in ten appearances. While Jackson has yet to cement a regular starting role, he is said to be settling well in Munich.

According to Football Insider, Bayern Munich are currently unlikely to trigger their £70 million purchase option for the player, though discussions with Chelsea over a potential reduction in the fee have taken place without progress.

This uncertainty has opened the door for Everton, who are keen to strengthen their attacking options.

Manager David Moyes reportedly views Jackson as an ideal centre-forward who offers both physical presence and attacking depth. Brentford’s Ivan Toney is also believed to be on Everton’s shortlist.

For Bayern, Jackson’s immediate future depends on his performances in the coming weeks.

Should he make a strong impression, fresh talks with Chelsea could still be revived, but for now, Everton are monitoring developments closely.
