Chelsea winger, Hakim Ziyech has been offered a return to the Morocco national team ahead of the September international break.

It can be recalled that the former Ajax poster boy announced his retirement from international football in February after his broken relationship with former head coach Vahid Halilhodžić.

Following the sacking of the Bosnian tactician, new head coach Walid Regragui has offered Hakim Ziyech the chance to return to the national team.

According to the coach, he has already held talks with the Chelsea forward who is also ready to return.

"When I spoke to him, he accepted immediately and told me that he couldn't wait to return to the squad," coach Walid Regragui said as reported by BBC Sport Africa.

Later this month, Morocco will take on Chile and Paraguay in friendly matches scheduled to help the North African side to prepare for the 2022 FIFA World Cup.

Hakim Ziyech will be expected to make his return to the national team during the two games.
