The Achraf Hakimi transfer battle finally has a feel of reaching a conclusion pretty soon, but where will he end up, PSG or Chelsea?
Both sides are ‘close’ to sealing a deal, according to Sky Italy reporter Angelo Mangiante, who tweeted just moments ago on the situation. He says nothing is done yet and Chelsea are still in the race despite others suggesting PSG are closer.
Nothing done yet for Hakimi. The race is still open between Chelsea and PSG: both are close.
Inter are expecting new bids and Chelsea can offering also players.

Fabrizio Romano meanwhile, agrees that Chelsea are offering players but then says their offer is not ‘official’.
But he believes it is PSG who are progressing the most with the deal as it stands.

His other Sky Italy colleague Gianluca Di Marzio had been reporting that it was Chelsea that was close to Hakimi all last week, but he is now suggesting that it is PSG who could be about to meet PSG’s wanted fee for Hakimi.
