A clear answer.
In English football, loan players generally cannot play against their parent clubs. This has raised concerns among Bayern fans about Nicolas Jackson, who is on loan from Chelsea, regarding his eligibility in the Champions League. However, UEFA’s official rules provide clarity.
Details: In 2014, UEFA made a statement indicating that no club can dictate which players another club may use in a match. Any clauses in private agreements that limit a team’s ability to choose certain players are deemed invalid by UEFA.
Consequently, unlike the Premier League, the Champions League and other UEFA competitions do not allow clubs to stop loan players from competing against their parent clubs. Therefore, Jackson is eligible to play against Chelsea.
Reminder: There have been reports about potential sanctions Chelsea could face for violating Football Association financial regulations.
