The forward from Senegal wants to play for FC Bayern and remains in Munich hopeful for a deal closure.
Situation with Jackson
He came for a medical examination on Saturday, but Chelsea informed him about the need to change plans due to an injury to Liam Delap in the match against Fulham.
Jackson stays in Germany and hopes to work with FC Bayern's coach, Vincent Kompany.
Kompany tried to recruit Jackson during his time at Anderlecht, and now Jackson wants to seize this opportunity.
Kompany had a phone conversation with the player before the original deal was agreed, which convinced Jackson to reject Juventus' attempt to sabotage the deal that was reported on Saturday.
Jackson's situation is complicated by the fact that he signed an eight-year contract with Chelsea.
The injury to Delap, which may require up to eight weeks of rehabilitation time, has forced Chelsea to reconsider their plans.
According to SunSport, the club has recalled Marc Guéhi, indicating uncertainty regarding the situation with Jackson.
There are also reports about a potential transfer of the forward from Sporting, Konrad Harder.
Jackson continues to actively work on finalizing the deal, although he missed Chelsea's open play due to suspension.
Head coach Enzo Maresca has confirmed that Jackson was not in the team and could leave the club.
Maresca told journalists: “When the transfer window opens, unfortunately or fortunately, all changes can occur. This applies to Nicolas' situation as well.”
Newcastle also considered Jackson in the summer but has now finalized a transfer with Yoann Vissa for £55 million on deadline day.
Jackson's prospects
Earlier, SunSport reported that Jackson was interested in a move to Newcastle, but now his thoughts are focused on Bayern after speaking with Kompany.
Chelsea is willing to sell the player, but the deal must amount to around £60 million.
