The Senegal international joined Bayern Munich on loan on deadline day last summer, but they are unlikely to make his move permanent.
Despite an obligation to buy being included in the deal, the criteria to activate it can’t be met and Jackson will leave Germany in the summer.
Nicolas Jackson could make Chelsea return after the World Cup
Jackson scored on the weekend as Bayern beat Stuttgart 4-2 to once again win the Bundesliga, but he’s played second fiddle to the likes of Harry Kane and Luis Diaz for the majority of the season.
The 24-year-old has scored nine goals in 28 appearances, but only 12 of those have come as starts, and he’s played 757 minutes in the league.
Jackson has interest from clubs in Italy, and The Sun have reported he’s warming to the idea of a return to Chelsea, and has been in contact with the likes of Enzo Fernandez and Moises Caicedo.
The report adds Jackson is in no rush to make a decision on his future, and will hold talks after the World Cup, where he’ll be hoping to impress for Senegal.
Chelsea already have Emmanuel Emegha arriving from Strasbourg in the summer, so unless he were to be loaned back , or Liam Delap leaves, it’s hard to see where the space for Jackson in the squad is.

Jackson should stay … Playing with jao will be good factor . The board of directors should keep this player and convince him he has the future to this club . I don’t understand why maresca let him go . He is one of the core of this current team even Disasi and sterling . The owners fault and sporting directors bad decisions cost this team out of competing for the title . Jackson can operate in LW positions , his fast and dribbler good on the ball . Only problem is his finishing . He track back to help defensively . If he wasn’t offload imagine with jao Pedro and Delap three of them playing as two strikers upfront it will be hard for the opposition to defend against Chelsea. Disasi much more active than tosin and sterling experience can help Chelsea fight for the title . Maresca fault weakening the team . Tonight is crucial game they need three points up to their remaining game’s . The owners and boards of directors destroying the club legacy , they should hire world class head coach and don’t interfere on his duties , he is responsible to make the club champion look how man city look after pep … That’s the model of being champion club . The owners of the club only care is their portfolio . How I wish those politicians who is anti Chelsea FC fail . If only Roman Abhromovic can get the club back to him , that’s a wonderful thing’s to happen to all fans and supporters of the club globally . Rosenior is too young to manage this club look at the attitude of the players when they got subs no respect to the coaches . The players are not inspired to win the game for the club . They just there to show their emotions they’re not like the way the club run . I believe if this group of players if they want to win they will win . But because of their egos they destroyed the club . The players are the one to blame for not qualify for UCL …. They want to play UCL they have to win the game . Now impossible , Rosenior is not the right one . He is just a PR for the Mickey mouse and Donald duck and two stoggess directors.
Even if they win tonight? Too late , damaged done . Please sale the club to the right group of people who have a passion and love to this club like Roman Abhromovic done . Champion the pride of London .
Ciao …
