JACKSON STRIVE

Nicolas needs 40 starts to seal Bayern move

NICOLAS JACKSON'S dream of a permanent switch to Bayern Munich looks a long way off after it emerged he must start 40 games for the German giants if Chelsea are to bank £56m for him.

Jackson's loan move to Bayern only went through on transfer deadline day after an intervention from the striker and his agent.

Chelsea initially had cold feet and demanded that the Senegal international return to London following a hamstring injury to Liam Delap.

But the Blues instead recalled Marc Guiu from Sunderland, allowing Jackson to join the German giants on loan with an obligation to buy next summer if he makes a set number of appearances.
