Elche made the news by targeting a loan deal for Tyrell Malacia. It now seems the Spaniards also want Hakim Ziyech. The Moroccan international played for Al-Duhail in Qatar for the past six months, but is a free agent.
Voetbal Internationalโs Joost Blaauwhof has reported that Elche seem open to the idea of signing Ziyech, whose contract this summer.
Elche and Ziyech have reportedly both inquired about each other, but โthe gap between supply and demand remains significantโ. The Spanish club donโt normally pay large salaries, so the parties will either have to compromise or explore other options.
Blaauwhof concludes, saying that โbecause Ziyech is a free agent, he can be signed even after the transfer window. For now, the left-footer isnโt willing to make huge financial concessions, especially since thereโs no time pressure and interest in the former Ajax player is growing from various quarters.โ
