Sources: Newcastle stepping up Nicolas Jackson pursuit

Even before last night

I had this news before Newcastle United lost 3-2 to Liverpool last night and they had more injuries to attackers.

There are a number of clubs now trying to sign Nicolas Jackson and it’s become a bit of a race, which will suit Chelsea of course. However, they need the winner of this race to sign Jackson on a permanent deal.

As exclusively revealed last week and has now been reported by others, Chelsea are willing to accept a loan for Jackson but it has to include an obligation to buy. So far, Bayern Munich have only been offering an option. They may move to an obligation, and talks are happening with them as you read this.
