Antonio Rudiger and Kurt Zouma have taken to Instagram to react after Hakim Ziyech left Chelsea for Galatasaray.
The pair responded to the news on Instagram.
So, what did Antonio Rudiger and Kurt Zouma say after hearing that Hakim Ziyech had left Chelsea? Let’s take a look…
What’s the story?
Well, the Morocco international has joined Galatasaray on loan for the 2023/24 campaign, although the Turkish giants are obligated to turn the deal permanent at the end of the season – as revealed on Chelsea’s official website.
Therefore, Ziyech has already played his final game for Chelsea, and some of his old teammates have been sending him messages of support.
In response to the 30-year-old’s temporary Instagram story, Rudiger wrote “good luck brother” while also posting a photo of the Moroccan in his new club’s colours.
As aforesaid, Zouma also responded to Ziyech’s move to Turkey.
The Frenchman commented “all the best brother” after hearing that the Dronten-born attacking midfielder had completed his move to the Süper Lig.
Ian Maatsen also sent a message to Ziyech, simply posting a heart emoji in response to the news of his friend’s move to Turkey.
Ziyech given remarkable welcome after leaving Chelsea for Galatasaray
Despite his struggles at Chelsea, Ziyech is still regarded as a top footballer – as shown by the response to his arrival in Istanbul.
The Moroccan was unveiled in front of supporters after Sunday’s 2-0 win over Trabzonspor, with Galatasaray placing Ziyech at the front of their most vocal section, where he led a fan chant.
Everybody associated with Galatasaray seems overjoyed to have a player of this quality at the club, which continues a strong summer of recruitment after also securing the signatures of Wilfried Zaha and Mauro Icardi.
Hopefully, Ziyech can return to his previous ways and get supporters off their seats once again over in Turkey, after a tough time at Stamford Bridge.
