Hakim Ziyech is already showing what he is capable of as the Moroccan joined Chelsea on the 1st of July after completing a €40 million move back in February.
Chelsea hope to secure a place in the top 4 and qualify for the next season’s Champions League, but they have a mouth-watering challenge awaiting them in the form of already crowned champions Liverpool and the final matchday meeting with Wolves.
Although Ziyech arrived before the conclusion of the current campaign, the 27-year-old is not eligible to play for the club before the commencement of the 2020-2021 season.
Nonetheless, fans are exhilarated about the prospect of the Moroccan playing next season after seeing this fantastic pass/assist for Pedro in training recently –

Ziyech is a versatile player who can play both as an attacking midfielder and a winger.
He joined Ajax in 2016 and made a reputation for himself in the Eredivisie. But it was in the 2018-2019 season that he really announced himself to the world.
He led Ajax to their first league and cup double since 2001-2002 season and also led them to the Champions League semi-final by defeating defending champions Real Madrid in the round of 16 and Juventus in the quarter-finals.
