DBasia.news – AC Milan is a little closer to confirming the transfer of Hakim Ziyech. This can be realized with the player’s desire to defend the Rossoneri.
AC Milan is starting to move again in the 2022 summer transfer market. Previously, Il Diavolo Rosso focused on extending the contracts of Paolo Maldini and Frederic Massara. The two football legends are important figures behind Milan’s movement in the transfer market.
Maldini and Massara want to provide quality players for Stefano Pioli. Milan is aware, the challenge of defending the Scudetto title is very difficult because the competitors continue to improve themselves.
One of the players being sought is Hakim Ziyech. The former Ajax Amsterdam player had a hard time at Chelsea.
Initially, Hakim Ziyech was projected as a replacement for Eden Hazard who left for Real Madrid. However, the Moroccan player’s career has been plagued by injuries. Meanwhile, appearances on the field are also not as good as when strengthening Ajax. So far, Ziyech has only six goals and six assists in the Premier League.
According to the Calciomercato report, Milan offered a loan offer for one season with an obligation to buy. Reportedly, the price that the Rossoneri want is 25 million euros.
However, this value is 5 million euros adrift of Chelsea’s desire. In the coming days, the two sides are believed to be holding meetings again.
Milan’s ace card in this transfer is Hakim Ziyech’s desire to join. For Ziyech, Milan is an opportunity to shine again. In addition, Chelsea also need to release their winger to accommodate the arrival of Raheem Sterling.
