Hakim Ziyech Refutes Knee Injury Rumors Amid Saudi Transfer Speculation

This Tuesday, July 4, 2023, the Moroccan player posted a provocative photo of his legs on Instagram, following allegations of knee problems, with a sarcastic caption: "Knee problems, really? 😂"

However, Saudi sources had confirmed that Ziyech had not passed his initial medical examination, jeopardizing his summer transfer to the Saudi Professional League. A transfer that could prove lucrative for Chelsea, with the sale estimated at 20 million pounds sterling, as part of the ongoing player clearout at Stamford Bridge.

Ziyech’s 2022/23 season was marked by a recurring knee injury that deprived him of many matches. It seems to be the same injury that was the reason for his medical failure, a situation similar to the one he experienced during his medical examination at PSG. However, no report has yet emerged regarding a second medical test for the player.
