Manchester United are interested in signing Paris Saint-Germain defender Achraf Hakimi, according to Signature.
The 26-year-old Moroccan international has established himself as one of the best full-backs in world football and could prove to be a quality acquisition for the Red Devils. He has also been linked with Liverpool.
Although they have their Diego Daltot, they need more quality in that area of the pitch. Hakimi is a fine full-back who will help at both ends of the pitch. The 26-year-old is at the peak of his powers and could help Manchester United improve immensely.
The Red Devils need top quality players to compete with clubs like Arsenal, Liverpool and Manchester City. Hakimi is considered one of the best players in his role and it remains to be seen whether Manchester United can complete the deal.
The 26-year-old defender has been described by his manager Luis Enrique as an elite player with extensive experience.
Enrique said earlier this season (h/t) Moroccocoursednews): “He’s getting better, especially defensively. Hakimi is an elite player with extensive experience and serves as a reference for his teammates. I think he’s more mature than last season, and that reflects his development. “

The player may be tempted to move to the Premier League if the opportunity presents itself. It will be an exciting challenge for him at this stage of his career. It will be interesting to see if Manchester United can secure a deal with PSG.
Manchester United have had a mediocre campaign so far and will look to bounce back strongly in the second half of the season. Whether they can secure European qualification for next season remains to be seen. Attracting world-class players like Hakimi could prove difficult next season without European football. He will want to join a big club capable of winning big trophies.
