Ziyech is set to leave Stamford Bridge

Hakim Ziyech are set to make a decision on Hakim Ziyech’s future, with Everton interested in signing the winger.

Ziyech has struggled at Stamford Bridge and manager Graham Potter is reportedly looking at finding the Moroccan international a move away.

Everton are keen to add Ziyech to their ranks as they aim to avoid relegation from the Premier League and a move to Goodison Park would see him link up with Frank Lampard once again.

Lampard’s future is up in the air though after a 2-0 defeat to relegation rivals West Ham United left the Toffees 19th in the top flight.

It also remains to be seen if Ziyech would be willing to join a side at risk of relegation.

Roma are also reportedly interested in signing the winger, but it remains to be seen if Chelsea will allow him to leave this month.

The west London club have been busy in the transfer market and have added two wingers to their ranks.

Mykhailo Mudryk and Noni Madueke have joined from Shakhtar Donetsk and PSV Eindhoven respectively while young forward Datro Fofana and Benoît Badiashile have also made the move to the Premier League.

Mudryk made his debut as a second half substitute in the 0-0 draw against Liverpool on Saturday and was one of the standout performers.

Despite his shining cameo role, Potter said that there is still more to come from the Ukraine international as he is still getting up to speed after returning from a mid-season break with his former club, Donetsk.
