Nicolas Jackson's agent, Diomansy Kamara, has claimed the Chelsea striker will leave Stamford Bridge "within 48 hours".
The 24-year-old striker informed the Blues earlier this month he wishes to explore a move away this summer and with less than one week of the transfer window remaining, a solution appears to be close. Chelsea are willing to grant Jackson's wish should the right offer come their way, but equally would be happy for the Senegalese striker to stick around.
Via Footmercato, Kamara, who represents Jackson, has issued an emphatic statement. He said: "30 goals in two seasons, without a single penalty. Highs, lows… but a page is turning at the Blues. Always grateful for yesterday, but already looking toward tomorrow, with optimism. Germany, Italy, England: the options are numerous, the decision is imminent. Thank you for the support, we see your messages… Nicolas Jackson, transfer expected within 48 hours."
Bayern Munich have expressed an interest in Jackson and the player appears to be keen on a move to the Allianz Arena. However, the German champions are said to prefer a loan move while Chelsea are looking for a permanent solution for their No.15.
