In-Form Chelsea Star Will Leave Stamford Bridge Alongside Silva

It seems that Ian Maatsen has made a decision on his future at CHELSEA, if you believe the reports by Fabrizio Romano.

His performances for the German side has meant that they are very keen on making his move a permanent one – but there are also a section on fans that want the club too bring him back to Stamford Bridge.

Dortmund do not have an option to buy Maatsen has part of their loan agreement with the club, meaning that the two clubs will need to negotiate a fee for the Dutchman this summer.

According to Fabrizio Romano, who spoke to CaughtOffside on the left-back’s future, Maatsen “will leave Chelsea” this summer – despite his excellent season in Germany.

“Ian Maatsen has impressed since leaving Chelsea to join Borussia Dortmund on loan, and some fans have even asked me if this could lead to him returning to be part of the first-team at Stamford Bridge,” Romano said.

“My understanding is that Maatsen will leave CHELSEA for sure, so no, I don’t see him staying. Borussia Dortmund will try their best to keep Maatsen, they’re very happy with him and he’s also happy in Dortmund.

“The budget will be crucial to understand if they can make it happen, but the intention is clear. That’s the latest on the situation, and I don’t know anything yet about other clubs joining the race in case Dortmund can’t afford the deal.”
