Hakim Ziyech wants to move from Chelsea to AC Milan but will have to take a pay cut if he is to join the Italian champions.
The Moroccan winger is surplus to requirements at Stamford Bridge and Chelsea are willing to let him go for as little as £8.4million.
But the 29-year-old, who is pushing for the switch to last season's Serie 'A' winners, will have to reduce his salary demands if he is to get his wish.
Ziyech is paid around £5million a year by the Blues, a sum Milan cannot afford.
