I Don’t Want Them In My Team”, Pochettino Shocks Chelsea Fans Again As He Instruct Todd Boehly To Sell TWO Chelsea Key Players Before Chelsea Vs Liverpool Matc

Despite the fact that the two clubs have yet to agree on the conditions of the deal, Borussia Dortmund are apparently enthusiastic about signing Chelsea star Ian Maatsen in the January transfer window.

Many have been surprised by his restricted role under the Argentine, despite a successful pre-season tour in the United States and a wonderful loan spell with Vincent Kompany’s Burnley in the Championship last season, which saw him named to the league’s Team of the Season.

Despite being a natural left-back, many of his outings have come as a winger while Chelsea’s full-backs have been injured. Despite this, Pochettino has already stated that he will be more active in the future. Although, as the star’s future is discussed, that seems increasingly doubtful.

“Now, with the injury circumstance, [he’ll be more involved],” Pochettino remarked at a news conference before Chelsea’s 2-0 win over Sheffield United last month. “He was involved in the previous game, but young players can sometimes impress you in pre-season, but you need to give them time to relax afterward.”

“Occasionally, they struggle. He’s a fantastic child and a member of our team. He has amazing talent and can play in a variety of positions, but he needs to be given more playing time. He joined from Burnley in the Championship last season.

“To perform at Chelsea is not the same, and the competition is different.” But he’s a player in our plans, and we’re happy to have him because he’s always willing to help us.”

The Blues had earlier accepted an offer from Burnley for the star, which would have seen him return on loan before signing a £31 million permanent deal, but Maatsen turned it down because he wanted to try his luck in the Chelsea squad. Because that has not occurred, it is evident that the club is still willing to let him go in January – though Dortmund appear to prefer a loan move over a permanent deal.
