The transfer from Hakim Ziyech to Paris Saint-Germain seems to have been canceled at the last minute on Tuesday. The transfer seemed almost complete, but according to various media, the forms were not sent by Chelsea on time.
According to L’Équipe and RMC Sport, Chelsea is to blame. The Londoners were reportedly late in sending the forms and also allegedly sent the wrong documents several times.
Due to Chelsea’s misses, Ziyech could not be registered in time by the French federation. According to English and French media, Paris Saint-Germain wants to file a complaint against Chelsea with FIFA, but the chance seems small that Ziyech can still make the switch.
News broke earlier in the evening that both clubs had agreed a loan deal in the final hours of the transfer window. Ziyech himself was already in Paris, underwent the medical examination and already signed a contract.
