Manchester City are reportedly
sniffing around Real Madrid’s Achraf Hakimi as they look to bolster their backline ahead
of next season.Hakimi has impressed in Dortmund colours during his second season on loan in the Bundesliga – registering nine goals and ten assists across all competitions this term.The full-back is expected to return to the Spanish capital
this summer, but a host of European sides are rumoured to
be keeping tabs on Hakimi and considering a summer move
for the defender.
Man City are reportedly making the most progress in the race for Hakimi, however, as Cadena Ser claim that Pep Guardiola’s side have made contact with Real to assess the situation.The report claims that City are willing to fork out a hefty fee for Hakimi despite spending big on Joao Cancelo last summer, but Dortmund are still determined to strike apermanent deal for the 21-year-old.
Hakimi still has two years left to run on his current contract
with Real Madrid.
