The negotiations with the Blues from London were complicated recently, which is why the deal with the left-back took a while. As transfer insider Fabrizio Romano reported, Chelsea is said to have even extended the Dutchman’s contract until 2027 before the loan to BVB. According to BILD information, Dortmund even has a purchase option to fully sign the defender in the summer.
Maatsen there – now all we have to do is wait for Jadon Sancho (23). Here, too, the negotiations are in the final phase. If everything goes smoothly, he will show up in Dortmund promptly. Then BVB would have committed two building blocks for a successful second half of the season within a very short space of time.
