Player admits he wants to wear the Chelsea shirt next season

Ian Maatsen has revealed he wants to stay at Chelsea next season but admits he is in a ‘difficult’ position with his immediate future uncertain.

The 21 year old, who impressed on loan at Burnley last night, scored twice as Chelsea beat Wrexham 5-0.

West Ham are interested in signing Maatsen but the 21 year old admits his preference is to remain at Chelsea.

“I hope to come back here and show the fans and the manager what I am capable of,” he said.

“Of course, sometimes it is difficult [not knowing your future] but you try to do your best all the time, stay calm and not stress.

“Just think about football, ask a lot of questions about how to get better, how to improve yourself, ask your teammates and help them as well.”

Maatsen was deployed in a winger role as he scored twice in the first-half against the League Two side but starred at left-back for Vincent Kompany’s side last season.

“It is a position I can play. I can adapt really quick,” he said. “I also come in those positions when I play at left-back so for me it isn’t so difficult.”
