He reportedly wants to leave Stamford Bridge come summer, and the Blues are said to consider bids between £13 million and £16 million (€15 million and €20 million) for the Moroccan.

Despite having two years left on his contract, Ziyech is anticipated to leave Chelsea at the conclusion of the current campaign.
