Young left back moves closer to Chelsea exit – but Blues must get decent money

Ian Maatsen is a player we’ve been excited about for some time, but it now looks like he will leave Chelsea without ever getting a real shot at first team action.

The left back has had some really promising loans, which have clearly attracted the attention of European teams as Feyenoord are not hot on his tail.

SportWitness have translated quotes from Holland which claim that the 20 year old has already agreed personal terms with the Dutch side, and just needs Chelsea to agree transfer terms.

It’s surely going to be a sizable fee, given Maatsen’s obvious talent the and time and money Chelsea have spent on his development. We would still like to see him given a chance as our backup left back, but if the club really think he’s not up to that, we hope he’s at least sold with a solid buy back clause in his contract.
