Dortmund is looking to secure Maatsen’s future with them, a task similar to what they faced with Jadon Sancho, and their decision will depend on the budget they have for the summer.
Maatsen has been a standout since joining Dortmund, attributing his strong performances to quickly feeling at home in the team. The 22-year-old from the Netherlands has become a crucial part of the team’s defense, claiming the left-back position as his own.

Ian Maatsen has been in the starting lineup for 18 games this season, missing only one due to a suspension from too many yellow cards.

Similar to Jadon Sancho situation, not easy but BVB will try to make it happen as soon as they know their summer budget.
Maatsen, very happy at BVB.
