Chelsea are interested in signing an Ajax winger to replace an in-form attacker.
If Hakim Ziyech left, Chelsea could make a bid for Antony.
Chelsea could bring in Ajax Amsterdam winger Antony as a replacement if Hakim Ziyech leaves the club in the summer transfer window, according to Fichajes (h/t Football London).
In 2020, the Moroccan joined Chelsea from Ajax, where he had mixed results. Injuries plagued the veteran winger in his first season, but he has gradually integrated into Thomas Tuchel's squad, demonstrating his ability at Stamford Bridge.
This season, the 29-year-old has eight goals and five assists in 32 games across all competitions, including a sensational Premier League goal against Tottenham Hotspur.

Tuchel and the Blues have more reasons to keep him than to split ways with the Moroccan, who has a contract with the club until 2025. Ziyech, on the other hand, is occasionally connected with a move away from the club. Chelsea might resort to Ajax once more for Brazilian sensation Antony in this situation.
Antony may inject some youthful vibrancy and energy into this group. In 79 games for Ajax in the Erdeviese, the 21-year-old has already earned a reputation for himself, scoring 22 goals and giving 20 assists.
Under the tutelage of Dutch coach Erik ten Hag, the player has progressed significantly. Many clubs throughout the world are interested in signing him, and Chelsea are no exception.
Taking a dip in the Ajax pool?
Despite the intense competition in the forward area, Ziyech is a player who can contribute significantly to the club. He is capable of generating the inconceivable on a regular basis, as we have witnessed in recent months.
Ziyech's story at Chelsea is only getting started. It has the potential to end before it reaches its full potential. Antony enters the picture in such a situation. For the Blues, Antony may be a viable choice.
At Stamford Bridge, the Blues have spent a lot of money trying to build a lineup of top strikers.
If they want to keep Antony away from Ajax, they'll have to pay a lot of money for him.
Antony may be a terrific addition, as he has done well for the Dutch team in the UEFA Champions League, demonstrating his ability to create memorable moments on the big stage. The Brazilian might provide extra depth to the squad while also increasing rivalry among the team's more senior members.
