THE brother of Chelsea star Hakim Ziyech has dropped a major hint that he could be set to return to Ajax.
Abdullah Ziyech took to Instagram to post an image of Hakim in the Ajax shirt.
The 29-year-old is unhappy at Chelsea due to a lack of game time and he wants a move away from Stamford Bridge this summer.
Since making the transfer to West London back in 2020 for a fee of £36million, Ziyech has scored 14 goals in 84 matches.
At the Eredivisie champions his record is much improved netting 49 goals and registering 81 assists in 165 games.
The Moroccan was a fan's favourite at Ajax winning a league title and a domestic cup while also playing an integral role in the club's run to the Champions League semi-final in 2019.

With the Amsterdam based side ready to let Antony go to Manchester United there could be a spot in the side for Ziyech.
AC Milan also reportedly have an interest in him as did United due to Erik ten Hag working with Ziyech before but it appears they are now prioritising other targets.
Thomas Tuchel has splashed the cash this summer and the extra attacking addition of Raheem Sterling will further restrict Ziyech's opportunities.
Chelsea need to offload players though and are looking to get rid of the likes of Christian Pulisic and Callum Hudson-Odoi too.

The Blues are keen on Wesley Fofana of Leicester but it could take an £80million offer for the Foxes to accept a bid.
Therefore recouping some money from the sale of Ziyech could allow Chelsea to up their Fofana bid.
If a deal cannot be done they could make a shock move for Brighton star Adam Webster, according to reports.
