Bayern Munich and Arsenal are reportedly prepared to battle it out for the signature of Inter Milan defender Achraf Hakimi.
With Hector Bellerin is expected to leave the Emirates this summer, the Gunners are thought to have identified Hakimi as a potential target ahead of the new season.
The Morocco international has enjoyed an impressive 2020-21 campaign for the newly-minted Serie A champions Inter – contributing seven goals and seven assists in 33 league appearances.
Bayern Munich boss Julian Nagelsmann has identified Hakimi as an ideal addition to Allianz Arena, but a £50m asking price could be a hurdle for both Bayern and Arsenal.
Der #FCBayern bastelt für Trainer #Nagelsmann am Team für nächste Saison. Die Münchner haben #Hakimi von @Inter auf dem Zettel! Er würde als offensivstarker Außenverteidiger ideal ins Nagelsmann-System passen. Knackpunkt könnte die Ablöse sein. #FCBTransfersommer @kessler_philipp
