21-year-old Moroccan international Achraf Hakimi, who has shone with Dortmund this season, will leave the German club this summer, Borussia sports director Michael Zorc confirmed on Saturday.
The prodigiously fast defender on loan from Real Madrid could be sold by the Spaniards to Inter Milan, according to trade magazine Kicker.
Obviously with regrets, Zorc explained that Real, the player’s training club, wanted to monetize the young talent, whose rating has risen sharply.
According to the specialized website Transfermarkt.de, its market value went from 5 million to 54 million euros during its stay in Dortmund.
Become indisputable holder in the Ruhr as a lane player this season, he notably scored two doubles in the group stage of the Champions League, including one against Inter.
The asking price “has gone up again,” said Zorc: “We don’t want to, we can’t” keep it, he said.
Dortmund announced Thursday the recruitment of Thomas Meunier, who plays in the same position as Hakimi. The Red Devil had reached the end of the contract at Paris Saint-Germain.
