Rumors suggest that Ian Maatsen from Chelsea has notified the club of his desire to make a permanent move to Borussia Dortmund this upcoming summer.
The 19-year-old left-back made a loan switch to Dortmund during the January transfer window and has since become a key player for the German team.
In a recent match against Atletico Madrid, Maatsen scored his first-ever goal in the Champions League as Dortmund advanced to the semi-finals, leading Chelsea fans to advocate for his retention at the club.
Initially aiming to establish himself as a regular starter at Chelsea before his loan move, Maatsen’s aspirations have shifted, and he now aims to secure a permanent deal with Dortmund, according to reports from Metro UK.
The Dutch player feels ‘very at ease’ at his temporary club.
Maatsen has a release clause set at €35-40m.
Prior to his loan stint at Dortmund, Maatsen had spent the previous season on loan at Burnley.
