Ziyech can be offloaded to AC Milan in summer Mercato

After a disappointing season, the Blues player, Hakim Ziyech is definitely thinking about leaving Chelsea during the current summer “Mercato”.

UK media indicates that Ziyech is not the only one to think about leaving, Timo Werner and Christian Pulisic are also deliberating a search for another team after they became among the alternative options in the “London team.”

The “Atlas Lion” Ziyech submitted a transfer request after being frustrated by the lack of playing time, especially after AC Milan’s interest in his services, according to the same sources.

Winger Hakim Ziyech has struggled for consistency in England since his arrival from Ajax in 2020. He made 83 appearances for Chelsea, scoring 14 goals and providing 10 assists, but has been battling many injuries that kept him in and out of the field.

Chelsea is reportedly ready to let him go for a lower fee this summer, while Italian club AC Milan has long been interested in him.

Italian media reported as well that the “Rossoneri” administration had reopened the channels of communication with its counterpart in Chelsea in order to assign Ziyech during the current summer transfers.

Meanwhile, the English media said that they were sure that Thomas Tuchel, the Chelsea coach, would not want Ziyech, Werner, or Pulisic to leave.

The same sources stressed that Tuchel cannot allow all of those to leave because he cannot replace them all, and concluded that the player closest to staying in the ranks of the “Blues team” is the American Pulisic.

Ziyech will probably be the one allowed to leave even if his contract doesn’t end in another three years.
