Milan transfer target Hakim Ziyech would seem to be heading back to Ajax from Chelsea, especially after sacking his agent.
The 29-year-old Morocco international had been linked with the Rossoneri throughout the summer, even after Charles De Ketelaere was signed from Club Brugge.
They were eager to pick him up on loan with an option to buy, but Ziyech was ultimately low on the list of priorities compared to a defensive midfielder and extra centre-back.
Because of this, Ziyech is now looking at other clubs and could make a return to Ajaxm, where he played from 2016 until his €40m transfer to Chelsea in 2020.
According to beIN Sports, he would be the replacement for Antony, who is wanted by Manchester United.
Ziyech also cut off previous negotiations with clubs including Milan, Monaco, Olympique Lyonnais, OGC Nice and Olympique Marseille by sacking his agent.
That means if the Rossoneri were to renew negotiations, they’d have to start from scratch.
