Hakim Ziyech told to leave Chelsea

Hakim Ziyech has been urged to quit Chelsea by Dutch legend Marco van Basten.

Van Basten, 58, told Ziggo Sport: “Ziyech was on the bench yet again against West Ham. When he does come on they use him as a striker. He can operate in that role too, as he is a good player.

“But I find it sad to see. The system that Thomas Tuchel employs is simply not good for Ziyech.

“If I was Hakim I would say to myself: ‘You know what, I’m going to leave.’

“I’d say: ‘Listen, I’ve got no rapport with the guy [Tuchel] – I’ve got to get out of here.’ There is no sense in him staying put.”
