Pochettino praises the Chelsea star: “I’m pleased with him and he’s in my plan

The young Dutch star, Ian Maatsen, is part of Chelsea manager Mauricio Pochettino’s plans for the upcoming campaign, he has claimed.

The Argentine said that Maatsen, who had a productive loan season with Burnley in the Championship last year, has impressed him thus far in preseason.

I am extremely pleased with him, remarked the former manager of Tottenham and PSG.

He is a player who can fill a variety of roles. He is such a smart player, has quality, and understands the game.

He is currently part of my strategy, yes. I am ecstatic about him,” the South American manager said, according to Chelsea’s official website.

He claimed that Maatsen is a player who can play multiple positions with ease, which is advantageous for the squad and the coaching staff.
