Real Madrid and their fans will be very excited about the summer transfer window because Kylian Mbappe is about to come. They don’t want to stop there, though, as Sports Zone reports that the club wants to hire PSG back Achraf Hakimi.

The Spanish team wants to improve their defense, and Hakimi is one possible candidate. However, English team Manchester City may give them a tough time because they also want to sign the Moroccan right back.

People in the football world know Achraf Hakimi as one of the best right-backs in the game. He joined PSG from Inter Milan in Serie A in 2021 for what was said to be €60 million. This is when he became an important part of their team.

The 25-year-old has played in 25 games for the French club this season and has scored four goals and set up five others. He makes two stops, nine interceptions, and one clearance every game, and he completes 87.2% of his passes (stats from Whoscored).

It will not be easy to sign Achraf Hakimi.

Real Madrid is interested in Achraf Hakimi because they need to find a new custodian to replace Dani Carvajal. It’s almost the end of the Spanish right back’s professional career at the top level. Because of this, the club needs to find a substitute so that everything runs smoothly.

Hakimi is said to want to leave PSG as well because he wants to play for the biggest titles. He might want to join the Whites because they have a history of winning big trophies. Besides, he knows the club well because he played for them before he chose to move there permanently to get more game time.

The rumored arrival of Kylian Mbappe will also be a plus since Hakimi is his best friend. PSG doesn’t like to sell their star players, so Real Madrid will have to make a good offer for the back. There is a lot at the Paris club.
