Borussia Dortmund wearing director Sebastian Kehl has showed the membership will aim to signal Jadon Sancho and Ian Maatsen on everlasting do business in this summer time.
Sancho rejoined Dortmund on mortgage from Manchester United till the tip of the 2023/24 season early within the January switch window, presen Maatsen signed on a indistinguishable offer from Chelsea quickly then.
Chatting with TNT Sports activities forward of Dortmund’s Champions League semi-final 2d leg win at Paris Saint-Germain on Tuesday, Kehl used to be requested about the potential of conserving each gamers in the long run.
“We will see. They are on loan, both of them, but at the end we need to make any decisions,” he stated.
“They are under contract with their clubs so it means we will, at a specific point, get in touch and see if it is possible or not. I know that the players are welcome at Dortmund, they feel at home, especially Jadon, he knows our club pretty well.
“I feel it used to be rather a just right determination to whisk them within the iciness, however once more that is one thing for the day.”
Sancho left United after falling out with manager Erik ten Hag and refusing to apologise for an outburst on social media. The winger has been tipped to return to Old Trafford if the Dutchman is sacked this summer, which is increasingly plausible given the Red Devils’ slide down down to eighth in the Premier League table.
Maatsen, meanwhile, turned down the opportunity to join Burnley on a permanent transfer last summer having helped them secure promotion from the Championship during a loan spell at Turf Moor the season prior. However, he did not get much of a look in at Chelsea and was scarcely used in his natural left-back role, with Mauricio Pochettino often opting to play him on the wing or as an attacking midfielder.
Though Sancho’s loan deal does not include a purchase clause, Dortmund can buy Maatsen for £35m owing to a release clause written into a new Chelsea contract signed upon heading to Germany back in January.
United were eliminated at the group stage of this season’s Champions League and Chelsea did not compete in European competition at all, but Sancho and Maatsen are in line to feature in the Champions League final after knocking out PSG.
