Hupu September 1st According to the news of BBC reporter Nizaar Kinsella in the English media, the reporter updated the signing situation of Chelsea in the forward position.

It is reported that Chelsea has made official contact with Portugal Sports on the transfer of forward Harder, and in addition, Stamford Bridge executives still ask Bayern Munich to provide a permanent offer for signing Jackson's transfer.

On Saturday, the Blues withdrew their permission to conduct a medical examination for 24-year-old Jackson at Bayern, and Chelsea initially agreed to join Bayern for a loan fee of £13 million, with the terms of Kels opting to buy out. But the Blues also withdrew the deal just after Drapp suffered a hamstring injury against Fulham.

It is reported that Chelsea has contacted Harder and Portugal Sports, and the Blues have proposed a potential transfer after Saturday's 2-0 victory over Fulham. Jackson stayed in Germany on Sunday and was eager to leave Stamford Bridge, but Bayern was asked to renegotiate a permanent transfer contract to help fund Chelsea’s signing of a new striker due to changes in the situation.

Signing Hard and selling Jackson is the top choice for three potential situations, with head coach Maresca worried that Drapp will be out for six to eight weeks or more. Any deal depends on Portuguese agreeing to the transfer fee and convinced the 20-year-old Danish international to transfer to Chelsea to compete with two other strikers.

Alternatively, Spanish striker Giu may be recalled from the agreement on loan to Sunderland, but this requires an agreement between the clubs on both sides.
