Fulham and West Ham reportedly interested in attacking midfielder transfer swoop

Fulham and West Ham have both credited with an interest in Chelsea’s Hakim Ziyech. The Morocco international is facing an uncertain future at Stamford Bridge.

According to a report by French news outlet Jeunes Footeux, he remains in contact with PSG after seeing a move to the Ligue 1 giants fall through in the January transfer window. However, there appears to be plenty of competition for his signature.

Fulham and West Ham have been mentioned as two potential suitors along with London rivals Tottenham Hotspur. European teams such as Real Betis, Sevilla, Fenerbahce and Besiktas are also said to be interested.

Ziyech has been on the books at Chelsea since 2020 when they signed from Ajax. He has scored 14 goals in 102 appearances for the Blues in all competitions but has slipped down the pecking order under current boss Graham Potter and may well move on for a new challenge at the end of this season.

Fulham could see him as a possible big-name addition as they look to build on their impressive campaign under Marco Silva. West Ham, on the other hand, need to make sure they stay up this term before plotting transfer targets to bolster their ranks.
