Borussia Dortmund are ready to open talks with Chelsea for the permanent transfer of the 21-year-old full-back Ian Maatsen.
According to a report by HITC, Ian Maatsen is keen on making a permanent switch to Borussia Dortmund in the summer. He has been on fire since joining the Bundesliga club on loan, and they are ready to negotiate a permanent deal with Chelsea for the 21-year-old Dutch full-back.
Maatsen has been a part of the Blues since 2018. He had an impressive loan spell at Burnley last season and on the back of it, he was promoted to their first team ahead of the ongoing season. But, he could only get close to 400 minutes of first-team action during the first half of the season despite an injury to Ben Chilwell.
Dortmund’s Confidence in Maatsen
Borussia Dortmund were interested in his services, and they made a move for him in the January transfer window. The Bundesliga club managed to sign him on a short six-month-long loan deal. While they were unable to agree on a permanent option, they signed him with the belief that they would seal a long-term deal in the near future.
It has been just over a month, and he has only featured in five matches for Dortmund. But they are already confident that he has what it takes to be a special player. The 21-year-old brings a lot of attacking threat and he already has two assists in the Bundesliga.
Dortmund’s Intentions and Chelsea’s Stance on Maatsen’s Future
The Bundesliga club are keen on opening talks with Chelsea for the permanent transfer of the 21-year-old. They want to reach an agreement with the Blues before the end of the season, in order to avoid any unnecessary competition from other interested clubs.
A summer move is now in the pipeline as Dortmund are clear that they need him in their ranks for years to come. Even the player wants to seal a permanent move to the Bundesliga giants as he is loving life in Germany. As far as Chelsea are concerned, they won’t have much problem in sanctioning Maatsen’s departure as long as they get the right price for the 21-year-old prospect.
