Hakim Ziyech to Al Nassr as Chelsea try to clear Deadwood

The transfer insider relayed a report from Footmercato claiming Saudi Arabian club Al Nassr are now in pursuit.

They are reportedly “advancing in talks” to sign Ziyech from Chelsea. That is with negotiations underway.

In addition, the player is “open to discuss”. And a proposal has been made, Romano added on Twitter.

Chelsea are now expecting final bids from Saudi clubs for Ziyech as well as Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.

Al Nassr are in advanced talks with Real Betis midfielder William Carvalho over a proposed move to the Saudi Pro League (SPL) club.

A deal to bring Carvalho to Al Nassr would see the Portugal international team up with compatriot Cristiano Ronaldo. Who joined the club in January.

Ronaldo confirmed his intention to remain in the SPL at the beginning of June and the 38-year-old’s personal manager Ricardo Regufe has been exploring potential reinforcements for Al Nassr ahead of the new season in both the playing and coaching departments, with several players and coaches sounded out in recent weeks.

Ziyech is likely to be offered a bumper contract to entice him to Al-Nassr, and Chelsea will not look to stand in the player’s way. 

The Blues are looking to trim their bloated squad . After their ranks swelled to more than 30 players following an overactive January transfer window. 

Funds from Ziyech’s sale – as the player is contracted to stay in west London until 2025 . He will also contribute to Chelsea’s desire to balance the books and avoid being in breach of Financial Fair Play regulation. 

Mauricio Pochettino’s side has spent over £600million since their May 2022 takeover by co-controlling owners Todd Boehly and Clearlake Capital. Including breaking the British record fee with an £107m move for World Cup winner Enzo Fernandez.
