Chelsea star worth €35-40m tells club he wishes to leave this summer

Chelsea star Ian Maatsen has told the club that he wants to join Borussia Dortmund on a permanent deal this summer, according to reports.

The left-back joined Dortmund on loan in the January transfer window and the German side are thought to be desperate to keep him at the Westfalenstadion.

Maatsen scored his first-ever Champions League goal this week as Dortmund reached the semi-finals with Blues fans urging Chelsea not to offload him.

Speaking after the match, Maatsen said he was intent on becoming a regular at Chelsea before his loan move to Bundesliga giants Dortmund.
