Real Madrid full-back Achraf Hakimi open to summer move following Arsenal, Chelsea and Tottenham links

Real Madrid full-back Achraf Hakimi is not ruling out a move this summer after being linked with moves to Arsenal, Chelsea and Tottenham.

Hakimi signed for Borussia Dortmund on a two-year loan deal in 2018 and is due to return to the Spanish capital this summer - or when the 2019-20 season campaign concludes with Fifa advising all loan deals are adjusted to reflect the new time frame for the season.

All three London clubs have been linked with a move for a player who has emerged as one of the brightest right-back talents in European football with Bayern Munich, Juventus and Paris Saint-Germain also credited with interest.

Asked if he was flattered by the interest, Achraf told Cadena SER: "Who does not like it? I am proud of what I am doing.

"In June I will have to make a decision and it will be a great step for my career. In theory, my contract ends in June and from there I have to return to Madrid.

"I have not yet had contact with Madrid on this matter, but I imagine that soon we will have some conversation to find out what is best for me."
