The likelihood of Nicolas Jackson playing for Chelsea in 2026-27 has been the subject of several questions sent in via our Blues 'Ask Me Anything' form. It has seemed clear, almost from the outset, that Bayern Munich do not intend to sign Jackson permanently following his initial loan spell. Jackson is likely to be assessing his next move, with clubs including Aston Villa and Juventus previously expressing interest in signing him. Chelsea, meanwhile, already have two strikers in Joao Pedro and Liam Delap, with a third, Emmanuel Emegha, arriving in the summer from Strasbourg. We want to reward your time by telling you things you do not know and reminding you of things you do.
