Kai Havertz and Timo Werner are becoming stars for Chelsea and for the German International Team. They seem to be the best signings of the transfer window, but there is another player with a lot of expectations of the club from London, we are talking about Hakim Ziyech.

The former Ajax forward was injured in pre-season and has been striving for fitness since. He is in line for his debut in Stamford Bridge clash against Southampton. The 27-year-old has finally shaken off his knee problem. He has already played with Chelsea’s shirt for an exhibition match at Brighton in August.

Hakim Ziyech played 10 seasons in the Netherlands, four of them for Ajax, including the historic 2018-19 that includes a road to the semifinals of the Champions League. Ajax becomes one of the best teams that season and the Morocco forward was one of the reasons.
