Manchester United block Hakim Ziyech move as Erik Ten Hag looks to reunite with his former winger
New Manchester United manager Erik Ten Hag is reportedly keeping close tabs on former player Hakim Ziyech, however the United club chiefs are reluctant to authorise a move for the tricky winger. Ziyech was instrumental under Ten Hag at Ajax, with the winger playing a pivitol role in winning the Eredivisie, as well as a magical run in Europe which saw the Dutch side reach the Champions League semi-finals in the 2018/19 season. Since leaving Ten Hag and Ajax for a blockbuster move to London in 2020 however, the Moroccan has struggled to adapt to the style of English football and has fallen out of favour at new club Chelsea. Ziyech has struggled to make any significant impact since arriving at Stamford Bridge, with the likes of Mason Mount, Christian Pulisic and Kai Havertz all being favoured...
Hakim Ziyech wants to leave Chelsea in January
Hakim Ziyech is seeking a move away from Chelsea this January transfer window, according to reports. It is said that the Blues are also willing to let the Morocco international leave Stamford Bridge. The 28-year-old joined the Londoners in 2020 from Ajax in a deal worth around €40 million. His stint at the Johan Cruyff Arena was highly impressive, where he even reached the semi-finals of the Champions League in 2019. However, the attacking midfielder failed to make the same impact after he moved to the Premier League last year. He contributed only four assists and six goals in 39 total appearances for the Pensioners last season, with the Moroccan also missing plenty of games due to injuries. Now the 2021-22 campaign isn’t going very well either for the 2...

Robin van Persie wants Chelsea boss to give Hakim Ziyech ‘much bigger role’
Former Arsenal forward Robin van Persie has urged Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel to give “a much bigger role” to Hakim Ziyech. The 28-year-old has made 39 appearances for the Blues across all competitions since teaming up with the side last summer. The winger has played in a number of roles under Tuchel and Van Persie has expressed his displeasure with this, since the Morocco international does not have a definite role at the club. “It is actually a shame that the creativity of players like Ziyech, Pulisic and Kovacic – who I think is a brilliant player – is not being expressed,” Van Persie told De Telegraaf. “Kovacic is their engine and playmaker. Ziyech also has those qualities higher up the pitch, but he should have a much bigger role in the team. “He is now constantly searching [for a p...

Manchester City boss reacts to Sergio Aguero’s penalty miss vs Chelsea
Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola has reacted to Sergio Aguero’s shocking penalty miss during Manchester City’s 2-1 defeat to Chelsea at the Etihad on Saturday. Man City took the lead through Raheem Sterling in the first half and Aguero shockingly missed the opportunity to give the home side a 2-0 lead before the half time whistle. The Argentine attempted a Panenka penalty but the chipped effort lacked conviction and was comfortably saved by Chelsea goalkeeper Edouard Mendy.

Chelsea boss takes blame for Hakim Ziyech struggles at Stamford Bridge
Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel has shouldered the blame for Hakim Ziyech’s stalled progress at Stamford Bridge, challenging the midfielder to fight for his place in the team. Morocco international Ziyech, who signed in July, has only featured twice so far under Tuchel, leading to suggestions the former Ajax star could seek a summer exit. But Tuchel is adamant he will need to call on Ziyech as the hectic season unfolds. “It is my fault actually, not his,” Tuchel said on Friday. “It is my hard decisions at the moment as well for Mason Mount, Callum Hudson-Odoi and for Christian Pulisic sometimes in the half positions where we seem the strongest. “It is the same for Hakim at the moment and for some other players — there were hard decisions to make. It is never easy but it is a good thing, we have...
