Football Insider have revealed that Chelsea would be ready to accept just £20m for Hakim Ziyech this summer amidst interest from Tottenham Hotspur.
Ziyech struggled for game time under both Thomas Tuchel and Graham Potter this season, with the winger not having made an appearance for the Blues since February.
Jeunes Footeux reported last week that the Moroccan is desperate to leave Stamford Bridge at the end of the season in search of regular game time and claimed that Spurs are one of several Premier League clubs who have contacted the 30-year-old regarding a potential summer move.
This has now been backed up by Football Insider, who state that the Lilywhites have now ‘registered an interest’ in the former Ajax man, knowing of his desire to quit Chelsea.
The report explains that the Blues previously valued the attacker at £38m but are now prepared to drop their asking price to just £20m since the player enters the final year of his contract in June.
It is asserted that Spurs could face competition from Paris Saint-Germain as well as from London rivals, West Ham and Fulham, for the Chelsea star’s signature.
Spurs Web Opinion
I suspect Ziyech was primarily an Antonio Conte target, with the Italian potentially viewing the Moroccan as a backup to Dejan Kulusevski on the right.
I would prefer to see Bryan Gil play a more prominent role at Tottenham next season rather than to see Spurs go after the 30-year-old.
