Ex-Chelsea boss Gullit accuses old club of SABOTAGE over Ziyech's PSG transfer collapse

Ruud Gullit has accused former club Chelsea of SABOTAGING Hakim Ziyech's collapsed move to PSG.

PSG have blamed Chelsea over the deadline day cock-up, with claims the Blues failed to submit the necessary documents correctly on multiple occasions.

Former FC Twente chief Jan van Halste said on Ziggo Sport: "I know him a little bit from FC Twente.

"He's a great guy but you shouldn't mess with him. Then he got really toxic. I'd like to see a camera on his return to Chelsea's training complex. What will he say? What do you think? This is deliberate bullying. (Graham) Potter said they're just going to use him again. Well, forget it."

Former Chelsea manager and player Gullit also says there is no question of a misunderstanding.

"This is not a mistake, is it?" he said. "You can't. If you get that many players and you do this twice... It can be taunting. Ziyech can also have been annoying. You don't know. He will have to fight for his place again.

"In the end it's terrible for him. He should have left there a long time ago."
