PSG have completed the signing of full-fledged Inter defender Achraf Hakimi.

 

Achraf Hakimi feels a great sense of pride

Morocco International will cost in the region of € 60m, plus € 10m in superstructures, and he is leaving Serie A champions after just one season in Italy’s top race. The transfer is a big blow for Inter, with Achraf Hakimi being considered one of the top attacking full-backs in the game, although the financial struggle means transfer has become a necessity.

Achraf Hakimi told the Paris Saint-Germain website that he feels a great sense of pride today. After Spain, Germany and Italy, PSG offers him the chance to discover a new championship with one of the most prestigious clubs in the world.

Achraf Hakimi can’t wait to meet his new teammates, fans and experience the incredible color and passion inside the Parc des Princes. According to Hakimi, he shares the same big ambitions as the coaching staff and his teammates and will do everything in his power to ensure that he is expected to do so.

 

Inter sells one of its best players

It may seem odd that Inter is selling one of its best players after just winning the Serie A title, but financial issues at the club mean that the transfer, which can cost as much as € 70m, is too good to pass up. Indeed, the general manager of the Italian club Giuseppe Marotta confessed everything, saying that, having already seen the head coach Antonio Conte leave, let Achraf Hakimi leave the painful moment.

He said that it is obvious that this is a painful moment for them, but he is an administrator who must ensure the economic sustainability of the club during a difficult time for the world of football in general. Once Operation Achraf Hakimi is complete, it will allow them to have some breathing room, and they really hope that they will no longer need to be sold to any other big players as they want to keep most of the squad that the Scudetto won.

Inter fans will no doubt hope that Achraf Hakimi is the last of the club’s top players to be allowed to leave, with Marotta expressing a desire for Lautaro Martinez to stay while Lukaku has already dedicated his future to the nerazzurri. Achraf Hakimi’s stay in Italy is over, but the 22-year-old made 37 appearances in all competitions for Inter during his one season at the club, which helped them win the Serie A title.
