For him, this PSG-Real match on Tuesday will have a very special flavor.

Normal, at 23, the neo Parisian, Achraf Hakimi will return to his training club with memories full of memories.

But also some regrets, which he was able to express in an interview published this Monday in the Marca newspaper.

The Moroccan defender evokes several subjects but his exit on the White House is quite clear on his feelings.

"It's true that when you join Madrid for the first time, you have just played for Castilla and it is normal that the club does not bet so much on you because you are a young player.

But then when I left for Dortmund I was loaned out and had two great seasons and had to come back and decide.

And then Madrid, I think, still weren't betting on me, although I could continue to play at a high level.

And then when I left for Inter after being transferred, there was also an option to buy from Madrid and they didn't execute that either, so I think Madrid didn't want to bet on me as much as other clubs.

And I'm happy because I think these clubs weren't wrong to bet on me.

PSG “bet on me”

On his new life in the capital, Achraf Hakimi is logically more complimentary: “The truth is that I feel very comfortable, at home.

People welcomed me very well, the club, the supporters… Even before I came I already felt the affection, the club bet on me and made great efforts.

The coach too, we had a lot of conversations and he trusted me.

The players have also received me very well and tell me to always be calm and enjoy.

That's why I feel so good with them and I give the best of myself”

Training every day alongside Messi, Ramos, Neymar or Mbappé is pure happiness for him.

"It's normal for players like Messi, Neymar or Mbappé to surprise you, but the truth is that the one who particularly surprised me, even though I already knew him, was Marco Verratti.

To see him in person, to train with him, is to know that even if he is under pressure, he is calm.

Give him the ball, it's impossible to take it away.

The quality of those above is obvious, but seeing Marco in person is a treat.

The Marca newspaper also asked him his opinion on a possible future for Kylian Mbappé in Spain: “The truth is that I get on very well with him, we have gotten on very well since day one.

Age also matters because we have a lot in common.

Let's see what happens, I wish him the best in his career and in his life, and he will decide.

We're going to take advantage of it, we still have several months left together and then we'll see.
