Achraf Hakimi's move from Inter Milan to Paris Saint-Germain could make him the most expensive Arab footballer of all time.
The French side announced Tuesday that the 22-year-old former Real Madrid youth player had signed a five-year contract at the Parc des Princes with reports putting the initial fee at €60 million plus up to €11m in add-ons.
PSG's initial layout already sees the former Borussia Dortmund loanee jump ahead of the likes of Hakim Ziyech and Mohamed Salah. Should the add-ons be triggered, it would catapult the Morocco international ahead of Riyad Mahrez, who joined Manchester City for €67.8m in 2018.
Inter paid Real Madrid €41 million for Hakimi's signature in 2020, meaning the full-back has commanded more than €100 million in transfer fees.
