Club career

[edit]

Early career

[edit]

Maatsen joined Feyenoord's academy at the age of seven, but was allegedly dropped for being too small. He moved to Sparta Rotterdam and then PSV Eindhoven, before joining Chelsea in 2018.[10]

Chelsea

[edit]

On 25 September 2019, he made his debut for the London club as a substitute in a 7–1 EFL Cup victory over Grimsby Town.[11]

Loan to Charlton Athletic

[edit]

On 13 October 2020, Maatsen joined Charlton Athletic on a season-long loan.[12] On 20 October, he made his league debut for Charlton, coming off the bench as a second-half substitute in the side's 1–0 win over Blackpool.[13] He scored his first senior goal on 2 April 2021 in a 1–0 away win over Doncaster Rovers.[14]

Loan to Coventry

[edit]

On 30 July 2021, Maatsen joined Coventry City on loan.[15] On 2 October 2021, he scored his first goal for Coventry in a match against Fulham, helping his team to a 4–1 victory.[16] Overall, Maatsen made 40 league appearances for the Sky Blues and scored three goals during the 2021–22 season.[17]

Loan to Burnley

[edit]

On 15 July 2022, Maatsen joined Burnley on a season-long loan.[18] He made his debut in the first round of the 2022–23 EFL Championship against Huddersfield Town, where he also scored the only goal of the game in a 1–0 win.[19] Following his impressive performances, Maatsen was named the EFL Championship Player of the Month for January 2023.[20] His team eventually won the league and promotion to the Premier League,[21] with Maatsen being included in the Championship Team of the Season as the best left-back.[22]

Loan to Borussia Dortmund

[edit]

On 12 January 2024, Maatsen signed a contract extension with Chelsea until 2026 and joined Borussia Dortmund on a six-month loan.[23] On 16 April, he scored his first Champions League goal in a 4–2 win against Atlético Madrid in the quarter-finals second leg, helping his team progress to the semi-finals.[24] Borussia eventually reached the final, where Maatsen started the match and made a misplaced pass that led to Real Madrid's second goal in a 2–0 defeat at Wembley Stadium.[25][26] However, he was named in the competition's Team of the Season as the best left-back.[27][28]

Aston Villa

[edit]

On 28 June 2024, Maatsen signed for fellow Premier League club Aston Villa for an undisclosed fee, reported to be £37.5 million, signing a six-year contract.[29][30] On 17 August 2024, Maatsen made his Aston Villa debut as a substitute in a 2–1 opening day victory over West Ham United.[31]

International career

In September 2023, he received his first call-up to the Netherlands senior team by head coach Ronald Koeman, for two UEFA Euro 2024 qualifying matches against Greece and the Republic of Ireland.[33]

In May 2024, Maatsen was selected in the 30-man preliminary squad for UEFA Euro 2024,[34] but was later omitted from the final squad.[35] However, he was re-called to the Netherlands' Euro 2024 squad on 11 June as a replacement for the injured Frenkie de Jong.[36]
