Jackson's swipe at Chelsea as transfer hint dropped off the back of 1st BFC goal

Nicolas Jackson scored his first goal for Bayern Munich in their 5-1 Champions League play-off first leg win over Pafos and the striker has took aim the treatment from Chelsea

Chelsea striker Nicolas Jackson has taken a swipe at the Blues after revealing how he was forced to train in isolation for two whole months before his summer switch to Bayern Munich.

The Senegalese forward netted his maiden goal for Vincent Kompany's outfit following his summer loan move to the Bundesliga giants in their commanding 5-1 victory over Pafos in the Champions League. Jackson found the net for Bayern's fourth strike just past the half-hour mark following a double from Harry Kane and assisted Raphaël Guerreiro's first-half effort.

Mislav Orsic pulled one back for the home side moments before the break, but Michael Olise sealed a fifth in the second period to put the match to bed.

Speaking about the performance after the final whistle, Jackson said (as per Football London): "It wasn't easy, but we played a very good game and worked hard. I'm very happy to score my first goal for the club.

"I'm still getting back to full fitness because I hadn't played and trained alone for two months. I'm working hard every day."

Jackson's criticism stems from his treatment at Stamford Bridge following the Club World Cup. His move to Munich almost fell through after Liam Delap's injury, raising doubts over his future.

Jackson had travelled to Munich to finalise his transfer to the German powerhouse, but Chelsea required assurance that Enzo Maresca's squad possessed attacking alternatives.

The 24-year-old ultimately received approval to complete his move, with Marc Guiu coming back from his loan stint at Sunderland as a replacement.

Despite Chelsea agreeing to a potential sale to Bayern Munich under certain conditions, the striker was quizzed about his future after their victory over Pafos.

Jackson stated: "I'm very happy here, everyone welcomed me very well. I feel home. We'll see what the future brings."

The forward wasn't included in Maresca's pre-season plans and didn't make an appearance for the FIFA Club World Cup champions in the Premier League due to a suspension carried over from the previous season.

Jackson received a red card in a match against Newcastle United at the end of the last season, which meant he missed the start of the new season.

Another dismissal during the Club World Cup match against Flamengo raised further questions about his discipline.
