Are Arsenal in for Ajax winger Hakim Ziyech this summer?
Arsenal boss Unai Emery made a very interesting move on Twitter today.
The Spanish manager ‘liked’ a tweet from a user who recommended that Emery take Ajax winger Hakim Ziyech to North London.
Former Arsenal star Marc Overmars, who now works with the Dutch giants, said earlier this week that the Gunners should sign the 26-year-old [Sky Sports].
And it would appear as if Emery agreed – at least, he did for a while, but the former Sevilla and Paris Saint-Germain coach has since deleted the ‘like’.
Nevertheless, it’s very interesting and even more so if Arsenal are linked with him.
Plus, Emery does need a winger and so far much of the speculation has centered around Wilfried Zaha, but Ziyech, who helped Ajax to a Champions League semi-final last season, would be drastically cheaper than the Crystal Palace ace.
According to The Mirror, the Dutch-born Morocco international is available for only £30 million, which puts him within Arsenal’s means.
