The Premier League outfit already have seven stars out on loan from their bloated squad.<\/p>\n<p>According to reports, defender Ian Maatsen has been linked with a temporary exit. However, some fans have pointed out that the club has reached FIFA\u2019s limit of seven loan departures at any one time per season.<\/p>\n<p>FIFA tightened its rules around loans two seasons ago. In 2022-23, teams were capped at eight senior loans per campaign and the limit was reduced to seven for this term. Temporary departures for Romelu Lukaku, Diego Moreira, Kepa Arrizabalaga, Hakim Ziyech, Angelo, David Datro Fofana and Gabriel Slonina mean that quota has been met.<\/p>\n<p>But Maatsen would be able to leave on loan as he would be exempt from the rules. FIFA website states that players under the age of 21 and those who are \u201cclub-trained\u201d are excluded from the restrictions.<\/p>\n<p> <strong> READ MORE; <\/strong> <strong>Man Utd may sack Erik ten Hag after Liverpool as Ratcliffe \u2018meets Graham Potter'[LATEST] <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/67\/590x\/secondary\/Ian-Maatsen-Chelsea-5114843.jpg?r=1702544942584\"><\/p>\n<p>The Netherlands U21 international is listed as an official U21 player on the Premier League website. FIFA\u2019s definition of a club-trained player states that a player must have been contracted to a club for three full seasons or 36 months prior to the year of their 21st birthday.<\/p>\n<p>Maatsen, who was signed from PSV aged 16, comfortably falls under that category. The 21-year-old would therefore be allowed to leave on loan, for the same reason that Lewis Hall was able to join Newcastle in an initial temporary agreement at the end of the summer window.<\/p>\n<p>According to the Mirror, Maatsen has interest from Borussia Dortmund and former loan club Burnley. He turned down the Clarets in the summer but has not entirely closed the door on a return.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li> <svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"> <g clip-path=\"url(#clip0_1078_5986)\"> <\/path> <\/path> <\/g> <defs> <clippath> <rect width=\"23.4329\" height=\"23.4329\" fill=\"white\" transform=\"translate(0 0.134262)\"><\/rect> <\/clippath> <\/defs> <\/svg> Support fearless journalism<\/li>\n<li> <svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"> <g clip-path=\"url(#clip0_1078_5986)\"> <\/path> <\/path> <\/g> <defs> <clippath> <rect width=\"23.4329\" height=\"23.4329\" fill=\"white\" transform=\"translate(0 0.134262)\"><\/rect> <\/clippath> <\/defs> <\/svg> Read The Daily Express online, advert free<\/li>\n<li> <svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"> <g clip-path=\"url(#clip0_1078_5986)\"> <\/path> <\/path> <\/g> <defs> <clippath> <rect width=\"23.4329\" height=\"23.4329\" fill=\"white\" transform=\"translate(0 0.134262)\"><\/rect> <\/clippath> <\/defs> <\/svg> Get super-fast page loading<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/logo\/logo-premium-subscription.png\"><\/p>\n<p> <strong> DON&#8217;T MISS&#8230; <\/strong> <br \/> <strong>Man Utd to rival Arsenal for \u00a317m bargain as Chelsea deal &#8216;blocked'[TRANSFERS] <\/strong> <br \/> <strong>Chelsea chief Boehly may regret failed \u00a323m bid as striker shortlist shrinks[COMMENT] <\/strong> <br \/> <strong>Chelsea owners agree with Wright after being left &#8216;dumbfounded&#8217; by duo[LATEST] <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/67\/590x\/secondary\/Chelsea-Mauricio-Pochettino-5114849.jpg?r=1702544942655\"><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;As a young boy you always want more.
