Chelsea slammed with major Hakim Ziyech allegation after failed Paris Saint-German transfer

Chelsea star Hakim Ziyech was on the verge of a deadline day move to Paris Saint-Germain, but a January loan move fell through at the eleventh hour. A mixture of wrong documents, a computer issue and a missed deadline were all claimed to be the issue, with PSG failing with an appeal to salvage the deal.

Despite his disappointment surrounding a departure not being secured, with the Moroccan international subsequently left stranded in Paris, Graham Potter insisted he was back focused on the task at hand in west London.

"He's back in the country and he trained this morning [Thursday]," Potter said ahead of the Friday night clash with Fulham. "These stories won't be the first or last, but he is a professional player and understands the situation. He is committed to us and is available for the squad for the game tomorrow. He'll be an important player for us for the rest of the season."
