Italian side AC Milan is in talks to sign Hakim Ziyech from Chelsea.
Ziyech joined Chelsea two years ago from Ajax for a reported fee of £33m. As reported by Gianluca Di Marzio on Sky (via MilanNews), Milan are back in for Ziyech as he is a concrete objective for Paolo Maldini and Ricky Massara.
Not only that, but the operation is easier than in the past due to the good relationship between the American owners of the two clubs.
Thomas Tuchel has only used Ziyech sparingly during his time at the club while Chelsea are being linked with Raheem Sterling. The Morocco international is also in possession of a Dutch passport and can therefore be registered as an EU player.
Hakim Ziyech can leave Chelsea this summer, confirmed. AC Milan are interested in signing him – talks are already ongoing with player’s camp. ?? #CFC
Ziyech would be open to joining AC Milan, talks will continue in the coming days as per @DiMarzio. https://t.co/YupSKotl3S
