Moroccan Star Ziyech Set to Exit Galatasaray Amid Coach Conflict

The rift is burning between Hakim Ziyech and Galatasaray. The Moroccan player, who joined the Turkish club just a season ago, seems already on his way out.

Relations have deteriorated, particularly after the scathing criticism of his coach, Okan Buruk, following a crushing 5-0 defeat against Besiktas. Ziyech, known for his temperament, reacted by removing all photos related to Galatasaray from his social networks, a gesture that says a lot about his state of mind. The player had already had the same behavior when he was playing at Ajax Amsterdam.

Everything therefore suggests that the departure of the Moroccan international is imminent. According to Foot Mercato, Ziyech would be in advanced negotiations with the Qatari club Al Arabi. The Gulf club seems determined to secure the services of the Moroccan player and is trying to get ahead of other contenders.

At 32 years old today, Hakim Ziyech would thus have an opportunity to relaunch his career in a new championship, even if it is reputed to be much weaker than the European championship.
