PSG have reached an agreement with Chelsea to sign Hakim Ziyech on loan.
The rumours first appeared last night, with little warning, and after a quiet day today, it’s resurfaced with just an hour until the deadline.
David Ornstein is reporting that the two teams have agreed a loan of the winger until the summer. The Parisians beat off competition from RB Leipzig, Roma and others to secure the Morocco international.
Ornstein reports that the deal has an option to buy included (not a mandatory purchase fee), but also has a fee on top of the wages, which will be paid by PSG.

Ziyech had his two best games for Chelsea in some time over the last few weeks, but in the end a move away seems best for him and for Chelsea.
How he will cope with getting into that PSG team is his problem now…
