Hakim Ziyech (Arabic: حكيم زياش; Berber languages: ⵃⴰⴽⵉⵎ ⵣⵉⵢⴰⵛ; Dutch pronunciation: [haˈkim ziˈjɛʃ];[3] born 19 March 1993) is a professional footballer who plays as a right winger or an attacking midfielder for Süper Lig club Galatasaray, on loan from Premier League club Chelsea, and for the Morocco national team.[4] He is nicknamed "The Wizard",[5][6] a title given to him by his former club Ajax supporters.[7]

Ziyech started his professional career at Dutch club Heerenveen in 2012 and signed for fellow Dutch club Twente two years later. In 2016, he signed for Ajax on a five-year deal, with a reported transfer fee of €11m.[8][9] The 2018–19 season was the most prolific season in Ziyech's career, as he scored 16 goals and provided 13 assists in the Eredivisie.[10] He joined Premier League club Chelsea in the 2020–21 season.

Born in the Netherlands, and originally eligible to play for the Netherlands or Morocco at international level, Ziyech represented Morocco at the FIFA World Cup in 2018 and 2022, and the Africa Cup of Nations in 2019 and 2023.

Ziyech is known for his finishing, dribbling, long passes, technique, and ability from free kicks.[11] In 2019, he was selected as one of the 10 best players in the UEFA Champions League for the 2018–19 season.[12] At the end of the same year, he was ranked 29th in The Guardian's list of "The 100 best footballers in the world".[13]

Beginning in 2015 when Ziyech joined the national team, he has donated all attained earnings and bonuses from international play to various charities or to the staff of the team.[14]

Early life

Dronten, birthplace of Hakim Ziyech.

Ziyech was born in Dronten, Flevoland, (the youngest sibling of nine children, five boys and four girls) to Moroccan parents from Tafoughalt, a Berber village of the tribal confederation of Aït Iznassen located near Berkane in northeastern Morocco.[15] Ziyech grew up in the southern part of Dronten.[16][17] His two older brothers Faouzi and Hicham were born in Berkane. Like many Moroccans between the 1960s and 1990s, a large number of people from northern Morocco emigrated to Belgium and the Netherlands in search of work and better living conditions.[note 1][19] This was also the case for Hakim Ziyech's father who left Morocco in 1967 with his two sons Faouzi and Hicham[note 2] for the Netherlands where he worked in a metal factory.[17] Ziyech's mother joined her husband in the Netherlands at the age of eighteen and stayed at home and took care of the children in Dronten.[20][17][21] Hakim has double nationality: Dutch and Moroccan.[22][23] With his brothers and his friends from the neighborhood, Ziyech spent hours playing football on the Cruyff Court esplanade opposite his home.[24][17] Learning his first skill moves there, football quickly became a passion.[25] During his childhood, Ziyech regularly watched Ajax stars on television such as Wesley Sneijder, Zlatan Ibrahimović and Rafael van der Vaart.[note 3] "There were a few players I loved watching, like Ronaldinho and Zinedine Zidane ...players of that caliber. I watched them a lot when I was little. I remember when I was ten years old, I watched their videos on YouTube every day", he said in an interview with UEFA in 2019.[26]

Two of his brothers enrolled in the academies of PEC Zwolle and Heerenveen in the 1990s.[15] As for Ziyech, aged seven, he asked his father to enroll him at a football club in order to practice his favorite sport.[25] In 2001, he started playing football for his hometown club, Reaal Dronten.[27][28] At Reaal Dronten, he met Aziz Doufikar who was part of the club staff,[29] and the first Moroccan national to make an appearance in the Eredivisie.[30] According to Ziyech, Doufikar would go on to become a great source of motivation to embark on a football career.[31] In his neighborhood, Ziyech often went to the local youth center De Meerpaal to meet his friends and Doufikar, who was also an educator at the center.[32] During this time, Ziyech has told that football was a dominant part of his life: "I went to school half an hour earlier every day with the ball in my hand. During lunch break, I played football. Once at home, I drank, I ate and I went outside again to play football... whenever I nutmegged a big kid, the whole neighbourhood would start screaming. In my life, I have fortunately made the right choices. I had to sort through a lot of my friends who were going adrift. In the end, my real training took place in the neighbourhood".[33] Uninterested in school, Ziyech only devoted himself to football and the streets.[20]

On 23 December 2003, only ten years old, he suffered a great personal trauma, witnessing the death of his father, with whom he had a close relationship.[25] His father, Mohamed Ziyech had suffered from a neuromuscular disease for several months.[34] This event pushed him into youth crime.[35][36] He thus grew up with his mother, who was forced to educate her eight children using family allowances and unemployment benefits in order to provide for the needs of the eight children. Ziyech would see two of his brothers return to prison for burglary.[37] They were therefore dismissed from their respective clubs and decided to retire from football at an early age. One of the two brothers, Faouzi Ziyech has since stated: "Our last hope in the family was Hakim. Fortunately, he was able to quickly realise what was wrong, having four brothers who went down the wrong path".[38] As for Hakim Ziyech, he was demotivated at the age of twelve and decided to put an end to football.

Club career

Heerenveen

2007–2012: Youth and early career

Under the guidance of Aziz Doufikar, Ziyech would return to football, progressing through the youth teams of Reaal Dronten and later ASV Dronten. He was also motivated by his older brother Faouzi to continue playing football and not to be discouraged.[39] At the age of fourteen, he made his first return to Morocco to visit his father's grave.[40][41] On his return to the Netherlands, he was invited on trials with professional clubs SC Heerenveen and Ajax.[15] After impressing the Heerenveen scouts, he left his home in Dronten to be placed with a foster family in the town of Heerenveen, Friesland, where he joined SC Heerenveen's academy in 2007.[42][43][44] Ajax had found Ziyech too small to progress in their academy.[15] Once settled in at Heerenveen, he lived a turbulent life marked by delinquency, alcohol and drug problems, and he dropped out of school at age sixteen.[45][46] Despite a good relationship with his foster family, who are of Armenian origin "he regularly comes home very late, sometimes drunk," says Doufikar.[47] Having been an academy footballer for two years under youth coach Robin Veldman,[48] Ziyech very rarely participated in matches, spending his evenings until five in the morning in the neighbourhood drinking alcohol and using hard drugs.[49][50] Doufikar described Ziyech during his first years in Heerenveen's academy:

He drank, smoked and did drugs a lot, the only chance I had with him was to make him play in smaller tournaments. Fortunately, he very quickly realised that his future was football.[47]

Hakim Ziyech saw Doufikar as his second father,[51] spending his afternoons in indoor gyms playing two-on-two with his neighbourhood friends in his hometown of Dronten. At the age of sixteen, Ziyech participated in an indoor football tournament in the city of Tiel with Jong SC Heerenveen/Emmen. It was during this tournament that he met Mustapha Nakhli, his agent until 2022.[52] In a 2016 interview, Ziyech said, "When I was sixteen, I was one of the best players on the team, but I was the only one who wasn't offered a contract. I often questioned myself: 'I'm a tough guy, and on top of that, I'm a Mocro.' I felt compelled to work harder." Despite his growing recognition, Ziyech continued to grapple with alcohol and drug dependency, even resorting to selling hard drugs to provide for his family's needs. To steer him away from a destructive path and bad habits, his former coach, Doufikar, kept Ziyech engaged in indoor football, emphasising the importance of focusing on the sport.[note 4][47]

Heerenveen had been monitoring Ziyech's potential since his early days in their academy. When he was just seventeen years old, his talent was noticed, leading to his promotion to the first team in January 2012.[53] However, Ziyech's off-field conduct prompted his exclusion from the first team until he could demonstrate discipline.[53] At eighteen, he came under the mentorship of Mustapha Nakhli, who rented an apartment in the Zuidas neighborhood of Amsterdam-Zuid, which they shared. Ziyech left his foster family in Heerenveen and resided in Amsterdam for three years with his agent.[52]

2012–2014: First team

In April 2012, Ziyech signed his first professional contract with Heerenveen, inking a two-year deal.[54] However, after securing the contract, he had yet to make an official appearance for the club and was primarily involved in first-team training. His first unofficial appearance came on 10 July 2012 during a friendly match against the amateur club Be Quick Dokkum. In that match, Ziyech, starting alongside Oussama Tannane and Rajiv van La Parra, left an impression by scoring his first goal with a remarkable free kick.[55] His performance earned him head coach Marco van Basten approval, and he assured him of a spot within Heerenveen's squad for the UEFA Europa League match against Rapid București. On 2 August 2012, Ziyech made his formal debut for Heerenveen in the first leg of the third qualifying round of the Europa League, against Rapid, playing a total of 53 minutes before being substituted.[56] He made his Eredivisie debut for the club on 10 August, in a 2–0 loss to NEC.[57]

Ziyech scored his first goal for Heerenveen in a 2–0 win over NAC Breda, on 10 August 2013.[58] On 23 August, Ziyech provided two assists in a 3–3 draw with Ajax.[59] On 8 November, Ziyech scored and provided an assist in a 5–2 win over Waalwijk.[60] On 18 December, Ziyech scored two goals against AZ Alkmaar, in the fourth round of the KNVB Cup, one in regular time and a last-minute penalty to draw level and take the game into a penalty shootout, but he missed his penalty and Heerenveen were knocked out 6–5 on penalties.[61] On 21 December, Ziyech scored twice and provided one assist in a 5–1 away win over AZ Alkmaar.[62] On 18 January 2014, Ziyech scored in a 2–2 draw with Roda.[63] On 9 February, he scored in a 3–1 win over Groningen.[64] On 27 April, Ziyech scored once and provided an assist in a 4–1 win over Utrecht, after coming on as a substitute.[65][66]

Twente

On 18 August 2014, Ziyech joined Twente for 3.5m euros, signing on a three-year contract and taking the number 10 shirt.[67][68] On 5 October, Ziyech scored once and provided an assist in a 2–2 draw with AZ Alkmaar.[69] On 6 March 2015, Ziyech scored twice in a 2–2 draw with Willem II.[70] On 10 May, he provided three assists in a 3–0 home win over Dordrecht.[71][72] On 17 May, Ziyech scored twice and provided an assist in a 3–1 away win over his former club Heerenveen.[73][74] Ziyech finished the season with 11 goals and 15 assists in the Eredivisie.[68] For the 2015–16 season, Ziyech was selected as captain of the club; however, he was stripped of the captaincy in early January 2016, after he made disrespectful comments against the club and publicly requesting a transfer.[75][76] The 2015–16 season was the most prolific season in Ziyech's career, as he scored 17 goals and provided 10 assist in the Eredivisie.[10]

On 14 February 2020, it was announced that Ajax and Chelsea had reached an agreement for the transfer of Ziyech for a fee of €40 million (potentially increasing to a maximum of €44 million, with variable factors). He joined the Premier League club for the 2020–21 season.[111] Ten days later, Chelsea announced they had agreed personal terms with Ziyech and that he had signed a five-year contract.[112]

Ziyech made his league debut for Chelsea on 17 October 2020, in a 3–3 home draw against Southampton after he came off from the bench.[113] On 28 October 2020, he scored his first Chelsea goal in a 4–0 away win over Krasnodar on matchday two of the Champions League.[114] Three days later, Ziyech started his first league match for Chelsea, contributing with a goal and an assist in a 3–0 away win over Burnley. In doing so, Ziyech became the first Chelsea player since Diego Costa to score in his first two starts for Chelsea in all competitions.[115] In Chelsea's next league match, Ziyech provided two assists and was named the man of the match as Chelsea defeated Sheffield United by a score of 4–1.[116]

On 19 August 2023, Süper Lig side Galatasaray announced that Ziyech arrived in Istanbul to complete his transfer to Turkey.[127] On 20 August 2023, Ziyech completed a season-long loan to Galatasaray, with an obligation to make the move permanent.[128][129][130]

International career

Netherlands

Born in the Netherlands to a Moroccan family, Ziyech was eligible to play for either Netherlands or Morocco national team at international level.[135] He played for Dutch national youth teams, playing for the under-19, under-20 and under-21 squads. However, he opted to play for Morocco at senior level. He received his first call-up to the senior squad in May 2015 for friendly matches against the United States and Latvia.[135]

Morocco

Ziyech lining up for Morocco in 2018

In September 2015, Ziyech confirmed his choice to represent Morocco on the international stage.[136][137] Ziyech made his debut for the national team on 9 October, in a 1–0 defeat to the Ivory Coast.[138] On 27 May 2016, he scored his first two goals for Morocco, in a 2–0 win over Congo.[139] On 4 September, Ziyech scored in a 2–0 win over São Tomé and Príncipe in a 2017 Africa Cup of Nations qualifying match.[140]

In January 2017, Morocco manager Ziyech Hervé Renard surprisingly did not select Ziyech for neither the preliminary nor the the final 23-man Morocco squad for the 2017 Africa Cup of Nations.[141] Ziyech then rejected a last-minute call-up as replacement for the injured Younès Belhanda, stating that he would not accept any further call-ups as long as Renard was still the Moroccan national team's coach. In June, he once again rejected call-ups for some friendlies and Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers. Renard later apologised for the incident.[142][143][144] On 1 September, Ziyech returned to the national side, and scored in a 6–0 win over Mali, in a qualifying match for the 2018 FIFA World Cup.[145][146] He was selected for the final 23-man squad for the 2018 FIFA World Cup.[147][148]

In September 2021, Ziyech was omitted from the national team squad due to a "poor attitude", having previously refused to play, citing an injury. Manager Vahid Halilhodžić said, "For the first time in my coaching career, I saw a national team player who doesn't want to train and claims to be injured, although tests have shown he can play. I won't tolerate it".[149] Ziyech was then also left out of Morocco's 2021 Africa Cup of Nations squad.[150]

Ziyech playing for Morocco in 2018 FIFA World Cup against Portugal

On 8 February 2022, Ziyech announced his retirement from international football at the age of 28, having fallen out with Halilhodžić over his claims of Ziyech feigning injury.[151] On 13 March 2022, Ziyech and his Moroccan teammate Noussair Mazraoui, both rejected Halilhodžić's invitation to represent the Morocco national football team in the 2022 FIFA World Cup qualification – CAF third round against DR Congo, and reaffirmed his decision to retire internationally.[152][153] Halilhodžić was later sacked in August with Walid Regragui replacing him, which lead to Ziyech rescinding his resignation and he rejoined the national team for the friendly against Chile on 23 September.[154] Ziyech excelled as Morocco advanced to the semi-finals of the 2022 World Cup, scoring a goal and providing an assist.[155]

Ziyech speaks Dutch and English. He is not fluent in Darija; for this reason he addresses Moroccan fans and journalists in English.[156][157]

Style of play

Ziyech is a right winger who likes to take up a wide starting position and then drive infield with the ball, on to his stronger left foot and into positions where he poses a threat on goal, either with shots, through balls or crosses. He is most dangerous coming into central areas and looking to play killer balls to teammates making diagonal runs towards goal from the left. He is particularly skilled at playing deft balls over a defence, and if his teammates time their runs well, they often very suddenly find themselves with a one-on-one shooting opportunity. His movement off the flank means the right-back can overlap.[158]

The dip with which Ziyech plays those balls into the area is one of his greatest skills, not only because he so often creates clear-cut chances for his teammate, but also because he teases the opposition goalkeeper with a ball that looks like it might float through to them but drops short into the zone in front of goal. Ziyech can manipulate the ball impressively, and that leads to him creating plenty of chances for his team. He has incredible balance, speed and acceleration, is able to shake off the attention of an opponent with ease and create himself shooting opportunities, rather than going down the line to cross.[159]

The threat he poses when he moves infield means he draws defenders towards him, creating gaps for others further forwards. That also works the other way around; teammates know that when Ziyech moves towards goal they should make runs that take defenders away and create space for him to shoot. When he does get into a position to shoot from range, he usually looks to bend his foot around the ball and aim for the far corner.[160]

Personal life

On 15 October 2023, Ziyech had shown support for the Palestinian cause, during the 2023 Israel–Hamas war.[161] He expressed the phrase “From river to sea, Palestine will be free”.[162] Hakim Ziyech is a practicing Muslim.
