Aaron Anselmino returns to Chelsea

Centre-back Aaron Anselmino is leaving Borussia Dortmund and will return to Chelsea with immediate effect. The Premier League club have activated a clause, bringing the defender’s loan spell, originally scheduled to run until 30 June 2026, to an end ahead of time.

The 20-year-old Argentine made ten appearances for BVB, scoring one goal. Borussia Dortmund would like to thank Aaron Anselmino and wish him all the best for the future.
