Ziyech to sign for Chelsea in €40 million deal - Ajax
Hakim Ziyech will join Chelsea from Ajax this summer in a €40 million deal, the Dutch champions confirmed on Thursday.
"Ajax and Chelsea have reached an agreement for the transfer of Hakim Ziyech. The player will join the Premier League club on 1 July 2020 and will finish the season in Amsterdam," the Eredivisie outfit said in a statement.
"The clubs have agreed a deal of €40 million euros. This sum could potentially increase to a maximum of €44 million, with variable factors."
The announcement ends days of speculation over the future of attacking midfielder Ziyech, 26, who joined Ajax in 2016 from fellow Eredivisie club FC Twente for a fee of €11 million.
