Van der Vaart: I've told Levy to buy Ziyech from Ajax

Former Tottenham and Ajax star Rafael Van der Vaart says Spurs should move for Hakim Ziyech.

Van der Vaart sees the Ajax midfielder as a replacement for Christian Eriksen.

"I hope Ziyech goes to Tottenham and I think it will happen," he said.

"I talked to (chairman Daniel) Levy and said: 'Sign Ziyech after this season'. I am convinced that he would cause a sensation in London."

The last price referenced over a possible transfer of Ziyech is €30m - which Ajax asked for last summer.
