Chelsea midfielder Ziyech pushed about Halilhodzic Morocco blow-up

Chelsea midfielder Hakim Ziyech is tightlipped about his relationship with Morocco coach Vahid Halilhodzic.

Ziyech has been banished from the Morocco squad after falling out with Halilhodzic.

The midfielder told the Tiki Taka Touzani program: "He has his view of it and I have my view of it.

“It is what it is now, I know what happened. That is the most important thing to me."

Halilhodzic accused Ziyech of putting himself ahead of Morocco teammates.

But the player added: “I treat every player with respect. Anyone who knows me or who has worked with me knows that. It is what it is, so be it."
