Frank Lampard: Ziyech is a fantastic and creative player!

By db-admin

DBasia.news –  Chelsea finally managed to bring in Ajax Amsterdam player, Hakim Ziyech. Ziyech was brought to Stamford Bridge with a price of 44 million euros or equivalent to Rp 653 billion. The Blues manager, Frank Lampard, expressed his reasons for bringing in the Moroccan player.

Throughout this season, Chelsea have always struggled to break down opponents who played defense. Since November, the Blues have been recorded as one of the dominant clubs in possession, but they have found it challenging to score. This can be seen when Chelsea played West Ham, Bournemouth, Southampton and Newcastle United.

Frank Lampard had high hopes for Hakim Ziyech. The 26-year-old player is known to be very creative in creating opportunities. Ziyech’s report card that managed to record 21 assists from 30 appearances this season is expected by Lampard to be a solution.

“I think he’s a fantastic player,” Lampard told SkySports. “The first time I saw him was when he appeared in the Champions League last season. I think he was the most prominent player, especially against Tottenham Hotspur.”

“If you look at this season, there have been some matches that we have had difficulty in unlocking doors. He is a player who we hope can inject creativity and bring something different,” Lampard added.

“He scores goals, assists. I know he is not coming at the moment, but I am happy to know he will arrive next year.”

Ziyech is Chelsea’s first recruit since handled by Lampard. The ex-captain of the Blues gave a signal that there will still be more players to follow.
