Chelsea and Morocco forward, Hakim Ziyech has announced his retirement from international football.
The 28-year-old missed out on the just ended African Cup of Nations following scuffle with Morocco Head Coach Vahid.
Morocco were knocked out of the competition in the quarter-final by Mohamed Salah’s Egypt.
Despite being born and raised in the Netherlands, Ziyech has chosen to represent Morocco at international level since 2015 due to his family roots.
The Blues forward was left out of his nation’s squad due to his poor relationship with Halilhodzic, having not been played since June 2021.
The report goes on to state that Halilhodzic was unhappy with the player’s attitude at training and on matchdays, which led to the decision to leave him out of the squad.
