Report: Zinedine Zidane Wants African Star At Real Madrid

Report: Zinedine Zidane Wants African Star At Real Madrid

Real Madrid manager Zinedine Zidane has reportedly indicated that he wants Morocco international Achraf Hakimi to return to the club next season.

Hakimi is currently in the second year of his two-year loan spell with Bundesliga giants Borussia Dortmund, where he has risen to prominence with some impressive performances.

While the full-back may have just recovered from injury, Diario Sport report that Zidane is against making the loan switch permanent and wants the player in his squad for next term.

Ferland Mendy and Marcelo have been battling out for the left-back spot, but Dani Carvajal has been unchallenged in recent seasons, despite the presence of Alvaro Odriozola and Nacho Fernandez.

Hakimi has certainly caught the eye in the UEFA Champions League this season after scoring four goals in the group stage phase as Dortmund secured a spot in the round of 16.

The 21-year-old's form over the last year for club and country has earned him a nomination for the CAF Youth Player of the Year award.
