The French club were incensed that Chelsea had been able to tie up a deal for the Moroccan international, and released a statement expressing their fury.
However, Chelsea have now revealed the true story behind their late move to sign Ziyech. According to the Premier League club, they had been in contact with Ziyech’s representatives for some weeks and had been in advanced talks over the transfer.
However, the deal was complicated by a conspiracy between PSG and Ziyech’s former club, Ajax, to keep the player in the Dutch capital.
It is understood that the two clubs had a gentleman’s agreement, which saw them collude to keep Ziyech at Ajax until the end of the season, with PSG promising to sign him once the transfer window had opened.
Chelsea believe that this was the main reason why the transfer had not progressed and why Ziyech was still at Ajax when their move came in.
The English club have also accused PSG of attempting to cover up the truth by releasing an angry statement in which they blamed Chelsea for the delay in the transfer.
Chelsea have also accused PSG of “meddling in the transfer process in a manner which was not in the best interests of football”.
The Premier League club are now seeking an explanation and an apology from the French champions for their actions.
The truth behind Ziyech’s transfer has now been revealed, and it appears that PSG were not entirely truthful in their statement. This could lead to further action being taken by both Chelsea and the relevant football authorities.
