Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly interested in the Ajax winger.
Martin Jol has told Football London that Tottenham Hotspur should go after Ajax winger Hakim Ziyech this summer.
The Morocco international could be one of several Ajax players on the move over the coming months.
Tottenham were linked with him in May [Calcio Mercato] and quite a few fans of the North London club revealed their delight at the prospect to signing him.
And former Spurs manager Jol, a Dutchman, would love to see his old side snap up the winger.
He told Football London: “If I was Spurs I would go for Hakim Ziyech and then you’ve got Donny van de Beek, but the thing is now Ajax can ask £70m or £80m for their stars.
“The old days are over. You can’t get Ajax players for £12m or £15m. That time is over. Tottenham need very good scouts and people to find players.”
Contrary to Jol’s comments, Ziyech wouldn’t cost that much in the scheme of things.
In fact, the Mirror claimed that the 26-year-old, who scored against Mauricio Pochettino’s side in the second leg of their Champions League semi-final last month, could move for as little as £30 million.
For that fee, it’s a no-brainer for Pochettino.
