"More transfer fails than G+A this year" "Man is so cringe" - Chelsea fans destroy attacker for his sly social media post after failed medical

Chelsea fans made fun of winger Hakim Ziyech for his recent post on social media. The Moroccan international posted a picture of his knees from the training pitch with the caption "knee problems right?" alongside laughing emojis.

It comes in the wake of Ziyech's reported failed medical examination ahead of a proposed move to Saudi Arabian club Al Nassr. Ziyech was one of several Chelsea players linked with a move to the Saudi Pro League.

While the likes of N'Golo Kante, Kalidou Koulibaly and Edouard Mendy all secured transfers to Saudi Arabian clubs, Ziyech couldn't due to a supposed failed medical.

During the January transfer window, the 30-year-old winger was denied a deadline day transfer to French club Paris Saint-Germain after the Blues failed to send the right papers.

Ziyech had a transfer set-back at the start of last season as well, when Ajax failed in their attempt to re-sign him, despite the forward traveling to Netherlands to secure the move.

Meanwhile, his recent post via his Instagram story hasn't gone down well with Blues supporters on Twitter.

"This guy’s transfer away from Chelsea always backfires"

Another fan took a dig at the Moroccan international, claiming that he has more failed transfers than goal contributions for the Blues.

Here are some other reactions to the post:

The 30-year-old left-footed winger ended the 2022-23 football campaign with three assists in 24 appearances for the Blues across all competitions.
