Moroccan international Hakim Ziyech, who enjoyed a successful season on loan at Galatasaray from Chelsea, has attracted interest from clubs in Saudi Arabia and the United States. Despite injuries, Ziyech made a significant impact, prompting these offers, although the specific teams remain undisclosed.
Ziyech’s tenure at Galatasaray saw him regain his form, scoring eight goals in 23 matches.
This performance marked a resurgence after a challenging spell at Chelsea, where he played only 18 Premier League matches in the 2022-2023 season without scoring.
Currently vacationing in Marrakech, Ziyech has found a supportive environment at Galatasaray.
The Turkish champions exercised their option to buy him, and head coach Okan Buruk has emphasized Ziyech’s importance to the team.
In a recent press conference, Buruk stated, “Hakim Ziyech is our player and will stay with us next season.
It’s important and valuable for us, and we want him to stay.”
This commitment from Galatasaray suggests they are not keen on selling Ziyech, despite the lucrative offers from abroad.
The club values his contribution and sees him as a key player for the upcoming season.
At 31, Ziyech faces a decision about his future. The allure of high salaries in the Gulf or the prospect of joining the growing ranks of football stars in Major League Soccer (MLS) are tempting.
However, staying at Galatasaray, where he has reestablished his form and enjoys a positive atmosphere, also holds significant appeal.
The Moroccan midfielder’s next move will be closely watched.
Will he follow the path of stars like Lionel Messi and Olivier Giroud to the MLS, or will he opt for the burgeoning football scene in Saudi Arabia? Alternatively, he might choose to continue his journey with Galatasaray, where he has found stability and success.
Hakim Ziyech’s future remains uncertain, with offers from Saudi Arabia and the United States on the table.
However, Galatasaray’s determination to keep him and his own resurgence at the Turkish club suggest he might stay put.
The coming weeks will reveal whether Ziyech will embark on a new adventure or continue his impressive form at Galatasaray.
