Returns to Chelsea
Anselmino (hamstring) has returned to Chelsea from his loan with Strasbourg.
ANALYSIS
Anselmino is back with his parent club after a season on loan, serving between Dortmund and Strasbourg. It was not an ideal season for the defender, as he dealt with numerous injuries that led to fewer minutes, earning six appearances with Dortmund and only three with Strasbourg, ending his time in France without earning a start due to constant injury issues. The future likely holds another loan for the defender as he tries to rid his injury issues and build more experience in the top levels. He could very well return to Chelsea's sister club, Strasbourg, although the club could view other options, looking to have him on a European team that will give him regular minutes.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could move permanently to Dortmund
Dortmund are open to signing Anselmino to a permanent, multi-year contract if he impresses during his loan spell, according to Bild.
ANALYSIS
Anselmino isn't expected to have a clear path to playing time with Chelsea once he returns to Stamford Bridge in the summer of 2026. However, Dortmund could use another defender to bolster their depth, and Anselmino fits the mold of what Dortmund do in terms of signing. Expect the Bundesliga giants to make at least a minor move to sign the 20-year-old.
