Atlético Madrid considers Hakim Ziyech

In their search for a replacement for Ángel Correa, Atlético Madrid are exploring several attacking options. While Thiago Almada's name is repeatedly mentioned, there is a more affordable alternative that appeals internally: Hakim Ziyech.

Now a free agent after leaving Qatar, the 32-year-old Moroccan international presents an attractive profile for Los Colchoneros. Having played for Ajax, Chelsea, and Galatasaray, Ziyech would bring creativity, European experience, and a classy left foot. Signing him on a free transfer would be a smart financial move.

The goal? To find a "supersub" capable of shaking up a match off the bench, just as Correa did under Simeone. While Thiago Almada remains the coach's favorite, his price tag of around €25 million could put off the Madrid board. Ziyech, on the other hand, ticks all the boxes—at a lower cost. Stay tuned.
