Lampard Hails Ziyech’s Impact as Moroccan Star Shines for Chelsea
Frank Lampard revealed that he was seduced by the qualities of the Moroccan international Hakim Ziyech from their first contact, particularly by his self-confidence.
While many feared for his adaptation, the Atlas Lion has surprised. He quickly acclimatized before being forced to sit on the bench for several weeks due to a knee injury.
Back with the Blues, the Moroccan midfielder has doubly distinguished himself this week. He first revealed himself in the Champions League against Krasnodar and in the league against Burney this Saturday.
His performances have marked his coach, who did not spare his praise for his Moroccan protégé during the press conference held before the match on Friday. For Frank Lampard, Ziyech has a strong personality. "When we signed his contract, I was impressed by his countless qualities, especially his optimism. At Chelsea, we need that. "
"It is an honor to work with players of this caliber. For us, it remains a great opportunity that we had seized and thus becomes an advantage for us. His great qualities during training sessions are quite remarkable," he added.
