It appears that the Chelsea career of Marco van Ginkel will be coming to an end at the end of this season.
The 24-year-old Dutch midfielder has seen his Chelsea career interrupted by injuries and the past two seasons have seen him sent out on loan to the Dutch side PSV Eindhoven.
Whilst playing for PSV Eindhoven, van Ginkel has impressed and this season the midfielder has made 11 appearances and scored 7 goals in the Dutch League.
As a consequence PSV Eindhoven are considering whether to make the deal permanent.
However, according to the Evening Standard, PSV Eindhoven could have rivals for Marco`s signature.
Our source is promoting the idea that van Ginkel is also wanted by the Turkish club, Fenerbahce, and the Turkish club, managed by Dick Advocaat, have, according to our source, already started negotiations with Chelsea.
Talking about his potential acquisition, Advocaat is attributed as having remarked,
“He`s a good player. He can be the one who will move the ball from the midfield area to the last third.
‘He`s a good passer and also a great competitor. He has a good mind-set. If the terms are acceptable, signing him would be a no-brainer.”
Since joining Chelsea, back in 2013 for £8 million, injuries and loan spells have restricted Marco to just 4 appearances.
It`ll be interesting to see who wins this particular tug-of-war for the young midfielder and how much of that £8 million outlay Chelsea can recoup.
