HAKIM ZIYECH will be offered an escape from his Chelsea career limbo by Borussia Dortmund, according to reports.
The Blues’ £40million 2020 buy from Ajax has started just
two Premier League games this season.
Ziyech has only
started two league games for Chelsea this season
Morocco winger Ziyech helped the Blues win the Champions
League and Uefa Super Cup last term.
But the 28-year-old has become a victim of the success enjoyed by
Thomas Tuchel’s Premier League leaders this time around.

German paper Bild now claims Bundesliga giants Dortmund
plan a January move for Ziyech.
They are understood to want to buy the
Holland-born ace to create chances for superstar
striker Erling Haaland.
However, Chelsea are thought to only be willing to
let Ziyech leave on loan if at all.
He is under contract at Stamford Bridge until 2025, and has
made 10 appearances in all this season – scoring two goals.
Ziyech was
signed by Tuchel’s predecessor Frank Lampard, but has had fewer
chances to shine under the German boss.
Dortmund had earlier shown interest in Ziyech’s Blues
team-mate Callum Hudson-Odoi, but Tuchel is thought
unwilling to part with the 21-year-old academy product.
And the German club’s hopes of re-signing former
favourite Jadon Sancho on loan from Manchester United have been
written off – with neither the player nor the Red Devils open to a deal
