This is exactly what his good friend Romelu Lukaku did – separated from his agency and let his legal representatives complete the deal in his return to Inter.

A move away from Chelsea does look incredibly likely for Ziyech, who is reportedly in talks about a move to Lukaku’s rivals, AC Milan and is keen on joining the Italian giants.

Having just announced this statement, it does seem even more clear that a deal is on the cusp.

I feel the Moroccan will be missed on the pitch by the Blues, who played well last season for the majority, but with a lack of game time, you can see why he is seeking a move elsewhere.
