AC Milan, after the exit of Hakan Calhanoglu to rivals Inter on a free transfer, has been linked to multiple players in that position.
Mayhaps the most interesting and heavily linked profile is Hakim Ziyech of Chelsea. The Blues board made a great effort to sign the Morocco international for a fee reportedly around 40 million euros from Ajax. But, unfortunately for them, the player did not achieve the expectations, especially when Thomas Tuchel arrived.
Therefore, it is not a surprise that Ziyech's future comes into question.
According to what is reported in today's daily print edition of La Gazzetta dello Sport, the 27-year-old Champions League winner is the favourite candidate for Milan to replace Hakan Calhanoglu.
The newspaper points out that he can play as a playmaker behind the striker as well as on the wing and has plenty of experience in the Champions League.
