Milan hold new talks for Chelsea exile Ziyech – report

Milan have reportedly re-ignited talks with Chelsea for transfer listed winger Hakim Ziyech.

The 29-year-old Moroccan winger is seemingly no longer part of Thomas Tuchel’s plans in West London and the club are working to find a new home for the player this summer. Contracted to Chelsea until 2025, Ziyech has only rarely shown signs of the magic he showed during his time with Ajax.

As reported by The Telegraph, Milan have held a new round of talks with Chelsea for Ziyech, exploring a possible loan deal. Significant progress is not expected until later in the transfer window, with both clubs focusing on other priorities for the time being.

Ziyech is seemingly interested in the move and would likely be a good fit for Stefano Pioli’s squad. Last season, he scored eight goals and provided six assists in 44 appearances across all competitions. 

Milan’s current options on the right wing include Alexis Saelemaekers and Junior Messias, neither of which are displaceable in the starting 11.
