Hakim Ziyech (29) is having a happy time at Chelsea after shining at Ajax. Before exploding in the club of the Dutch capital, the attacking midfielder wore the colors of Heerenven and Twente where he revealed himself. It was at this time that Julien Fournier, already at OGC Nice, tried to bring him to the Côte d’Azur but he was politely refused by the Moroccan international. It must be said that during this same summer (in 2016), it was Ajax who came to get him.
“We were going to meet him … At the time, the players had a look at OGC Nice that they no longer have today. We didn’t exist for them. When I tackled this player, we didn’t exist, I didn’t realize. Yes, he snubbed us and I totally understand that. Back then he had Ajax, he had other big clubs. OGC Nice for him was not representative.concedes the current director of football of the French club in the program Gym Tonic from Nice Matin.
