A reliable journalist has hinted at what could become a possible player trade deal between Chelsea and Dortmund this summer.
Chelsea are going to be busy in the upcoming transfer window and they will have a number of deals they will look to be pulling off both outgoing and incoming.
We have been hearing about a host of names that Chelsea could go for in the market again at the end of the season, and the name of Rafa Leao is one creeping back in again, with Chelsea being linked to him a number of times over the years.
Chelsea of course have already completed the deals to sign two players from Sporting, with one of them arriving this summer and the other the following summer. Apparently, Chelsea felt pressure from other top clubs so that’s why they got the deals for Geovany Quenda and Dario Essugo done early in some pre-deals.
But one situation that Chelsea have to make a decision on is what they want to do with Jadon Sancho, whether they pay up to send him back to Manchester United, or sign him permanently.
Perhaps they buy him and then sell him on straight away?

Chelsea are keen on Dortmund winger Jamie Gittens and apparently, Jadon Sancho could replace him at Dortmund.
Chris Wheeler of The Daily Mail reports:
‘Dortmund are said to be interested in signing Jadon Sancho for a third time to replace Jamie Gittens who, ironically, could end up at Chelsea.’
I can see Chelsea signing Sancho then using him in a swap deal to get Gittens in this summer.
