What if Achraf Hakimi returned to where it all began? Trained at Real Madrid, the right back made his debut at Casa Blanca in 2017 before being loaned for two seasons to Borussia Dortmund. He then joined Inter Milan for a year, before settling down in Paris. Since then, a beautiful romance has blossomed between the Moroccan, one of the architects of PSG’s victory in the Champions League, and the club from the French capital.
Currently in the infirmary, Hakimi returned to Spain to continue his rehabilitation at the Innova Institute, specializing in health and sport, in Murcia. PSG of course validated this move, the full-back returning regularly to the French capital. Taking advantage of his stay, the defender visited his former club and attended the match against Elche on Sunday, a remarkable return which caused a lot of noise in the Iberian press.
Real Madrid wanted Hakimi
According to A.S.Real Madrid would have hoped to repatriate Hakimi to Casa Blanca. The media indicates that the Moroccan international would have been contacted by Florentino Pérez for an arrival in the summer of 2026. These negotiations dated a few years ago, just before his extension at PSG until June 2029.
Initially, the player seemed interested in the idea of ​​returning to Madrid, but he ultimately chose to stay in Paris, seduced by the sporting project proposed by Luis Enrique and Luis Campos, and by a more attractive salary than that offered by the Madrid management. Pérez then turned to another priority file: that of Trent Alexander-Arnold.
