Hakim Ziyech’s move to Al Nassr is in danger after the Saudi Arabian club discovered a problem with his knee, Santi Aouna reported last night.
Chelsea have done brilliantly shipping out their unwanted stars so far this summer, and there was bound to be a problem somewhere along the line. Unfortunately for poor Ziyech, who was just minutes away from completing a move to PSG in January only to see it fall through, it’s come with his move.
Aouna reports that Al Nassr now “have doubts” about the move after the club “identified a knee problem.”

It’s never quite clear how these things will work out. Chelsea may be able to force the deal through by offering a discount, but Al Nassr may not want to take the risk at all.
If that’s the case that puts Chelsea in a very difficult position, especially now other clubs will have wind of the fact that the Moroccan has a dodgy knee.
