According to transfer news from SportWitness, Chelsea are set to release Marco van Ginkel on a free next season. He will end his loan spell with PSV this season and then return on a permanent basis from next season onwards.
Van Ginkel signed for Chelsea from Vitesse Arnhem back in the summer of 2013 but has endured a rocky eight-year stint with the club. The Dutchman has spent the majority of his time with the Blues away on loan, having had stints with the likes of AC Milan, Stoke City and more recently PSV Eindhoven.
Injuries haven’t helped Van Ginkel’s causes either as he spent over 1000 days out on the sidelines between the last couple of seasons due to a serious injury. Currently with PSV on another loan stint, the 28-year-old has played just ten times across all competitions.
Van Ginkel’s current deal will be up at Chelsea this season. The club did have the option of extending it by a year but now it has been reported that they will not do so. He will end the current season and on the expiry of his deal, he will join the Eredivisie club on a permanent basis.
A talented player who has fallen victim to injuries, Van Ginkel never had a future at Chelsea. As things stand, Thomas Tuchel already has a plethora of options in midfield, not considering the ones out on loan. A separation, thus, is in the best interest of both parties.
