AC Milan’s strategy to play tug of war with Chelsea over Ziyech

Jakarta

AC Milan don’t want to rush to secure services Judge Ziyech from Chelsea. The Rossoneri want the deal to be established according to the terms they put forward.

Summarized by Italian Football, Milan only wants to recruit Ziyech by borrowing first with a permanent option. While Chelsea want to include a must-buy clause in the deal.

AC Milan did not want to be tied to the obligation to buy Ziyech because he had recruited Charles De Ketelaere. Both players have similar roles, namely as attacking midfielders who can be shifted to the wings.

For Milan, adding players in that position is no longer a priority for now. Therefore, Milan only wants to include a buy option clause, not mandatory.

If Ziyech is really good, it’s okay if he stays. But if later it doesn’t match expectations, at least no money is wasted because it buys two ‘same’ players. Maybe that’s what Milan thinks at the moment.

Ziyech is reportedly getting impatient with the slow progress in these negotiations. However AC Milan indeed not as insistent before, when De Ketelaere had not yet arrived. Rossoneri hope Chelsea want to lower the conditions put forward to them.

Last season, Ziyech was not the first choice of manager Thomas Tuchel. He only started 14 times in the Premier League. this season, Chelsea only appeared one game, namely when they beat Everton 1-0. Ziyech was just sitting on the bench at the time.
