He's a good player but defensively suspect imo. I think he has been hyped up a little too much this season because of his goals. Not sure he's a good fit for a team that doesn't play three at the back; he's basically a midfielder for Inter. Potential and age are spot on though.
Inter bought him for €40 million six months ago though, he has played the best football of his career this season, and they are now going to sell him for less just because they struggle financially? Whoever started this rumour doesn't seem to understand how money works.
Their financial struggles are pretty severe from what I read the past couple days. They haven't even paid the first tranche of 10m to Madrid for him, might well be they sell him because after Lautaro he's probably their most valuable asset. Could be a Cazorla at Malaga situation which we could take advantage of again.
The way our team is shaping up, Hakimi would be an incredible bit of business.
The influence on our play from Tierney, and Saka, shows that the wings for us are vital right now, and Hakimi simply is at least as good going forward as TAA and Cancelo. You could even make the case that he is even better going forward than they are.
If possible we should make it happen at all costs.
