After having stolen Kylian Mbappé from Paris Saint-Germain, Real Madrid is preparing another bad turn for the capital club by courting Achraf Hakimi.

Relations are rather good between the leaders of Paris Saint-Germain and those of Real Madrid. But that doesn’t stop the Merengues from targeting executives of the French champions, and not just any executives.

While the arrival of Kylian Mbappé is considered a given, even if nothing has yet been made official, the White House has another PSG player in its sights: Achraf Hakimi. The case of the Moroccan right-back will also be one of the hot issues in the months to come for the Parisian staff. “PSG wants to renew Achraf Hakimi’s lease which ends in 2026. Talks have started but are not yet at an advanced stage. The right-back is particularly highly courted by Real Madrid”summarizes Abdellah Boulma this Friday via X (ex-Twitter).

Hakimi at Real… in 2025?

Hakimi at Real Madrid, that would make sense. The Moroccan would find his old club, his training club even, and he would thus be able to follow the one who is one of his best friends in the PSG locker room, Mbappé. But the transfer will probably not happen this summer.

For Real, the two 2024 priorities are Mbappé and Alphonso Davies. The recruitment of a leading right-back, to succeed Dani Carvajal, should be on the agenda in 2025. Hakimi, if he has not extended, will be one year from the end of his contract, and will place PSG in an uncomfortable situation. This is the “Alphonso Davies” method.

precisely, as explained by journalist Mario Cortegana, who confirms that the transfer of Hakimi could be one of the big issues for Real Madrid next year.

The Canadian will be at the end of his contract in 2025 with Bayern, who may have to sell him this summer. Real is courting him and encouraging him not to extend..twitter-tweet{margin-left:auto;margin-right:auto;}
