The coupling follows a q-exponential function and, in the context of high energy collisions, explains the origin of the Tsallis non-extensive statistics distributions. The parameter q is completely determined in terms of the number of colours and the number of quark flavours. We study several aspects of the extended model and compare our results to the standard NJL model, where a constant coupling is used in combination with a sharp cutoff to regularize the gap equation. We show that the modified coupling regularizes the model in a smooth cutoff fashion and reproduces the pion mass and decay constant, providing an almost identical Gell Mann-Oakes-Renner relation as in the standard NJL model. In both models the relation is satisfied in similar cutoff scales. An important novelty of this work is the physical explanation, in terms of the fractal QCD vacuum, for a running coupling that renormalizes the quark condensate.}, organization = {MCIN/AEI/10.13039/501100011033 PID2020-114767GB-I00, RYC-2016-20678}, organization = {“FSE Investing in your future”}, organization = {FEDER}, organization = {Junta de Andalucía A-FQM-178-UGR18, FQM-225, SOMM17/6105/UGR}, organization = {University of Granada}, organization = {São Paulo Research Foundation (FAPESP) 2021/12954-5}, organization = {FAPESP 2019/010889-1, 2016/17612-7}, organization = {Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico (CNPq) 305004/2022-0, 304244/2018-0}, organization = {Project INCT-FNA Proc.
