According to La Gazzetta Dello Sport, Milan are ready to make an opening bid to get Hakim Ziyech from Chelsea on loan with an option to buy for €15m.
The Rossoneri are long-time admirers of the Morocco international who has been shining in Qatar with his national team.
As per La Gazzetta Dello Sport, the Diavoli will make a new attempt to sign the Chelsea winger in January. The plan is to get Ziyech on loan with an option to buy with a transfer package worth circa €15m.
The Morocco star is willing to join Milan where he’d get more playing time than at Stamford Bridge and is reportedly open to cutting his €6m-a-year wages to wear the Rossoneri shirt in the January transfer window.
Milan can offer €4-4.5m per season even if the salary could slightly rise thanks to the Growth Decree which would allow the Rossoneri to save money on taxes.
The 29-year-old was a target of the Serie A giants in the summer before Paolo Maldini and Ricky Massara signed Charles De Ketelaere from Club Brugge for €32m plus add-ons.
Should’ve moved in the summer, now his price tag will be double..
Smart move by ACM to wait till after the WC when his price would rise.
