Ziyech leaves Morocco camp to continue treatment at Chelsea

The Royal Moroccan Football Federation (FRMF) has confirmed Hakim Ziyech's return to England to continue his medical programme ahead of Chelsea's Premier League encounter against Southampton.

Ziyech returned to action on Friday against Senegal for the first time since he suffered a knee injury in a pre-season outing against Brighton and Hove Albion in August.

The 27-year-old replaced Vitesse's Oussama Tannane just before the hour-mark and laid an assist for Youssef El-Arabi to secure Morocco's 3-1 win over the Teranga Lions at the Prince Moulay Abdellah Stadium.
