AC Milan make loan move for Chelsea attacker Hakim Ziyech

AC Milan are pushing to sign Chelsea attacker Hakim Ziyech on-loan this season.

Calciomercato.com says Milan are pushing to sign Ziyech on loan this season with an option to buy, should his temporary stay in Italy prove a success.

The Italians view Ziyech as a financially viable option, with other attacking targets such as Isco and Philippe Coutinho proving too costly both in terms of transfer fee and wages.

Moreover, Milan are confident they can get a deal done given their strong track record of working with Chelsea. The Italians have already signed Olivier Giroud and Fikayo Tomori from the Premier League side this summer.

All that remains is whether manager Thomas Tuchel views Ziyech as part of his Chelsea plans. The 28-year-old, the report adds, wants to determine where he stands before making a decision on his future.
