Hakim Ziyech has become the main focus of AC Milan’s mercato following the renewals of Paolo Maldini and Ricky Massara. Able to play in the centre and to the right, the Chelsea man is the ideal profile for the Rossoneri.

Stefano Pioli has asked the directors to bring in a versatile attacking midfielder and Ziyech fits the bill perfectly. After all, Milan struggled the most in the attacking midfield role as well as the right-wing one last season, hence their efforts this summer.

According to Corriere Dello Sport (via SempreMilan), contacts between Milan and Chelsea have intensified in the last few hours and an offer could be made soon. The idea is to snatch Ziyech on a paid loan with an option to buy.

Ziyech has already said yes to the move but his salary must be solved in one way or another, perhaps with Chelsea paying part of it. Even a small contribution would help Milan get the deal over the line. More updates could arrive very soon as the Rossoneri are working hard on the operation.
