Onana tips Ziyech to light up Premier League

Chelsea target and Hakim Ziyech’s former team-mate Andre Onana has tipped the winger to ‘destroy’ the Premier League.

Ziyech was signed by Chelsea back in February and tipped to join the side in the summer. With the Eridivise getting cancelled, Ziyech has now left the club and will join the Blues in June. 

Onana has praised the attacker and admired his ambition. 

“When he leaves [Ajax], we will lose the most brilliant player on the team. It will not be easy,” Onana told NOS. “He was already here when I got here. I can understand why [he is leaving]. I understand his choice.

“I am happy for him and proud of what he has done for this club. I wish him the best of luck. He’s going to destroy everything [in the Premier League].”

Ziyech had an emotional farewell to his time in Holland. However, the end was premature due to the CoVID-19 pandemic. The player was naturally a litte upset but overall satisfied. 

“You know that everything comes to an end, but it’s a strange way of closing this chapter. I am happy to take the next step, but you don’t want to end it like this.

“It feels as if you didn’t pass the exams, that’s how it feels. You’re powerless. It doesn’t feel like the season ended successfully.”
