Chelsea's Ziyech Shows Muted Reaction to Assist in Win Over Crystal Palace

After providing an assist in the match between Chelsea and Crystal Palace won by the Blues, Moroccan international Hakim Ziyech did not celebrate the only goal of the match, which is contrary to his habits with the national team.

Is Hakim Ziyech not happy at Chelsea? While he celebrated his goals and those scored by his teammates during the 2022 Qatar World Cup, the Moroccan international displays a contrary attitude with the Blues. During the match between Chelsea and Crystal Palace, the Moroccan international delivered a cross into the penalty area in the 64th minute, allowing his teammate Kai Havertz to get the better of Cheick Oumar Doucouré and score a header goal. A beautiful goal - the only one of the match - that all the Blues - except the Atlas Lion, have celebrated.

The attitude of the 29-year-old player says a lot about the discomfort he would feel since he returned to Stamford Bridge after his brilliant participation in the 2022 World Cup. Despite his good performances during the biggest sporting event, which took place for the first time in the Middle East, in Qatar, he is still on the starting line. Chelsea, who want to secure the services of Argentine international Enzo Fernandez, offer Benfica 87 million pounds, Ziyech for a permanent contract and Ivorian and Brazilian internationals David Datro Fofana and Andrey Santos on loan.
