Erik ten Hag gives thoughts on Hakim Ziyech's Chelsea situation after private chat

Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag has spoken of his "bond for life" with Chelsea star Hakim Ziyech, who has been linked with a summer move away from Stamford Bridge.

Ten Hag and Ziyech enjoyed a fruitful spell together at Ajax, where they came within seconds of reaching the Champions League final in 2019. The Moroccan stayed beyond that season while the likes of Matthijs de Ligt and Frenkie de Jong moved on, though he eventually left for Chelsea in 2020.

Ziyech has been in and out of the Chelsea team this season, and was on the verge of leaving in January before a move to Paris Saint-Germain collapsed. He was seen chatting with Ten Hag on Thursday after Chelsea lost to Man Utd, and the Red Devils' boss was asked about their conversation.
