Zakaria Bakkali

[Hamilton 2,118]

Totally dissapeared troughout the season..

How good is he? Is he similar to Hazard??

[Hamilton 2,118]

Similar style, but has yet everything to prove

[Hazardinho 88]

I'm sure this guy is gold. He's only 17 years old so it's pretty normal the guy isn't playing all games. He's a very technical player and his dribbles are really nice to see. Still misses some end product but I'm convinced that will come by getting more experience.

Belgium is stacked with talents. So many 16-17 year olds popping out and impressing people everywhere.

[Shakez 755]

I find him a tad bit overrated, better wait and see how he does next year.

[Hamilton 2,118]

Still no news on his future. If he doesn't sign a new contract he probably will be sold in summer.

Bakkali and Tielemans are something to watch...but for the sake of their careers, they shouldnt be near Chelsea until they are 23y.o. That will be around in year 2020.

[Hamilton 2,118]

He got a 'take it or leave it' offer from PSV. If he doesn't take it, he will be sold in summer.

I'm sure he's talented but he hasn't scored a single goal since august. He had an outstanding week but I don't think we should go for him. We have more than enough loanees.

You are absolutely right, i'm just updating this thread. Still he's one to keep an eye on..

I've been monitoring him for a year, very good player. I think he should stay in PSV or join Anderlecht, they are good teams for a young man like Bakkali.

Don't lump them together based in age. Bakkali needs more time. Tielemans will be ready for top flight football at 18

In a gala game for Ji Sun Park he was taken off the pitch after 16 mins. Coach Faber said in a newspaper cause Zakaria refused three times to defend his man.

What is happening with him, seems to me he should walk out there as soon as possible, cause this situation is delaying only his development.

Hoping that some Belgian teams are watching this.. Unless he has some diciplinary issues maybe..

Last sentence is spot on, read somewhere he was being a Dick against some PSV fans during some sort of a fan day. Not the last mentality issue we've seen around zakkaria, that's what i think.

[Hamilton 2,118]

He can go between 2 or 3 m€ (going in his last year of contract), for a team that can make him walk the right path again it's a real bargain..

What level do you think he's at? lower Premier league?

Kid has huge potential, just needs to stop messing around and truly focus on his football career. If he goes to a team where a manager will get him to properly focus on football he wouldn't do to bad at a mid table PL side.
