Hakim Ziyech is in the spotlight due to his good performances at the World Cup. The Moroccan winger joined Chelsea in 2020 for 40 million euros but he has not created any relationship with any coach in the London team. According to 'Sport', in the next few days he could close his loan with Milan although he could have signed for Barcelona if they had not opted for Adama Traore and Ferran Torres.

Chelsea midfielder Hakim Ziyech was a key player for Morocco to survive the group stage, along with Croatia and Belgium, and to reach the semi-finals of the World Cup in Qatar.

However, the footballer is not having enough playing time at Chelsea. He has only played 271 minutes without scoring a single goal in nine competitive matches. For that reason, according to 'La Gazzetta dello Sport', he will look for a new destination in January.

Milan seem to be Ziyech's new team if there are no other club interested in signing him. Nevertheless, according to 'Sport', the Moroccan player could have signed for Barcelona if they had not opted for Adama Traore and Ferran Torres.

We will have to wait for the result of the World Cup. For now, everything seems to indicate that he is close to a move to the Italian side, but there are still a few days left until the January transfer window opens and there is still enough time for a few more teams to show interest in him.
