Four English giants chasing Ajax midfielder Hakim Ziyech

England's biggest clubs are chasing Ajax midfielder Hakim Ziyech.

The Mirror says Ziyech could be heading to the Premier League — with the Morocco star available for just £25million.

The 26-year-old is being watched by league leaders Manchester City — who see him as a potential replacement for contract-rebel midfielder Ilkay Gundogan — while Manchester United, Arsenal and Liverpool are also on his trail. German champions Bayern Munich are interested too.

Ziyech has enjoyed an outstanding season with Ajax, scoring 19 goals and making 20 assists as the sleeping Amsterdam giants have woken up by launching a Treble bid.

The Dutch club are top of the Eredivisie, through to their domestic cup final, and will meet Tottenham in the Champions League semi-finals having seen off holders Real Madrid and Juventus in the previous two rounds.
