Ian Maatsen, who has been performing well at Borussia Dortmund, is expected to return to London in the summer. No specific club was mentioned. Dortmund is trying to avoid this return due to his strong performances. Maatsen himself has not closed any doors regarding his future.

Ian Maatsen is expected to be sold permanently after his loan move away during the 2023-24 campaign.

Chelsea is planning to sell academy graduates including Ian Maatsen to raise £100 million in player sales to satisfy Premier League profit and sustainability regulations. The transfer fees would represent pure profit on the balance sheet.
