Nicholas Jackson, on loan from Chelsea to Bayern Munich, took part in his first training session with the Bavarian club this Thursday. Highly anticipated in the Bundesliga, the Senegalese international striker is already generating great hopes in a league where his compatriots have often struggled to establish themselves in recent years.

 

For Bassouarė Diaby, director of the Génération Foot Academy training center and an expert on German football, the success of the former Casa Sports player will depend on his ability to meet several challenges.

 

Adapting to the German playing style

"The German league is very physical, fast-paced, and tactically rigorous," Diaby explains. According to him, Jackson will need to quickly raise his level of pressing, increase his defensive efforts, and fully engage in transition play. The Bundesliga, he insists, demands unwavering consistency: performing every week is a must.

 

Overcoming the language barrier

Beyond the pitch, the human and cultural aspects will play a crucial role. Bassouarė Diaby believes that learning German, even at a basic level, will be essential to better communicate with his teammates and the staff. "Building a good relationship with the dressing room is essential," he emphasizes.

 

Finally, the coach advises Nicholas Jackson to take advantage of Sadio Mané's recent move to Bayern Munich. "He should listen carefully to his elder's advice," adds Diaby.

 

If these conditions are met, Bassouarė Diaby is convinced that Nicholas Jackson can succeed in his German gamble and establish himself in one of the most demanding championships in Europe.
