Ian Maatsen to complete shock £37.5m transfer to Aston Villa from Chelsea as he returns to Premier League after impressive Borussia Dortmund loan spell

Maatsen has been linked with a permanent move away from Stamford Bridge since the end of the season, with Borussia Dortmund having been eager to bring him back to the club after his successful loan spell. However, <a href="https://x.com/FabrizioRomano/status/1804885842927731146?t=FSyPdlRyj1phuoGASFchDw&amp;s=19" target="_blank">Fabrizio Romano</a> has now confirmed that the Dutch left-back will join Aston Villa and have another go at making his mark on the Premier League.

WHAT HAPPENED?

The report from Romano has mentioned that Unai Emery's side have acquired the 22-year-old Dutchman for a reported fee of £37.5 million ($47.4m). Maatsen will sign a six-year deal with Villa that will see him remain on their books through to 2030.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

Romano also stated that <a href="https://twitter.com/FabrizioRomano/status/1804833836171218992" target="_blank">Aston Villa midfielder Omari Kellyman will join Chelsea</a> in a separate deal that will be worth £19 million ($24m,) and the 18-year-old will also sign a six-year deal until the summer of 2030.

DID YOU KNOW?

The defender is currently with the Dutch national squad in Germany for the Euros but hasn't featured so far for Ronald Koeman's side, and will look to complete the Aston Villa deal as soon as possible, having already passed his medical.
