Hakim Ziyech

Hakim Ziyech plays as a winger/attacking midfielder for Ajax and for the Morocco national team. He is famous for his technique, passing and free kick ability.

Over the past few seasons, Ziyech has averaged more than 10 goals and 10 assists in the Eredivisie. He”s brilliant with the ball at his feet and is very potent when it comes to distributing it as well. Ziyech has all the attributes to do the job that Mahrez has done for so long at Leicester, but the Moroccan will definitely not come for cheap.

However, if Leicester City's management and Claude Puel are looking to find an immediate replacement for Riyad Mahrez, then Ziyech should definitely be an option worth considering.
