Hakim Ziyech’s Agent Replied Rumors of Return to Chelsea

The agent responsible for facilitating Hakim Ziyech’s loan move from Chelsea to Galatasaray has dismissed recent claims suggesting he requested the deal’s termination this month.

Ziyech finalized his loan transfer to Galatasaray last summer, with the club confirming no payment was made for the deal. Additionally, they negotiated the option to sign Ziyech on a free transfer next summer.

A report from Turkish outlet DHA suggested that Galatasaray might consider ending the loan due to concerns over Ziyech’s performance. This speculation gained traction when alleged quotes attributed to agent George Gardi surfaced on social media. Seemingly confirming Galatasaray’s intention to cut short the deal.

However, Gardi took to social media to clarify the situation. Dismissing the quotes as “fake news” and denying any statement made regarding Ziyech. He further emphasized not knowing the individual who used his name in the statements.
