Ligue 1 reject PSG request to allow Ziyech deal

Chelsea forward Hakim Ziyech's proposed move to Paris-Saint Germain has officially been called off.

The Moroccan was hoping to link up with the Parisiens this winter, and possibly beyond the end of this season.

However, those document issues at the last moment scuppered the deal.

Chelsea submitted incorrect documents, and according to French sources on multiple occasions, which meant the deal could not happen.

PSG are said to have appealed to Ligue 1 for an extension, but that was rejected.

Ziyech was extremely upset as he wanted to make the move.
