Having failed to establish himself in the Real Madrid setup, Achraf Hakimi sought a way out in order to secure regular first-team football and that way out came in the form of a loan transfer to German side Borussia Dortmund.

The 20-year-old has flourished at the Signal Iduna, and has established himself as one of the most important players in BVB's quest for a first league title in seven years.

Under Lucien Favre's guidance, the Moroccan international has undoubtedly improved his game, making 17 appearances in the Bundesliga and scoring two goals and making four assists, while also dislodging the more experienced Lucasz Piszczek from the starting lineup.

Hakimi has undoubtedly been one of the best loan signings of the season and it therefore comes as no surprise to find out that the Dortmund board are doing all they can to make his transfer permanent.
