A fee had already been agreed between the two clubs earlier this month, with the personal terms the only thing standing between the move being made official.
On Sunday evening, Chelsea confirmed on their website that Ziyech had agreed terms on a deal until mid-2025.
Ziyech said, “I am happy and proud that I have signed for such a large club as Chelsea. I look forward to next season and hopefully we can achieve fantastic things together.”
The 26-year-old missed Ajax’s 1-0 loss on Heracles Almelo on Sunday due to being not fit enough.

Sorry to see Ziyech leave Ajax although we knew it was coming…but to join “such a large club as Chelsea”?
Larger than Ajax? No, but richer…….financially I presume but so annoying that this is the way it is.
