Achraf Hakimi’s agent cracks the door for Real Madrid return - but says PSG remains home for now

Achraf Hakimi’s agent Alejandro Camaño has praised the right back’s life at Paris Saint-Germain and underlined a contract running to 2029, but he also called Real Madrid his player’s home. That combination is classic transfer oxygen. From conversations I had this week in Madrid and Paris, no immediate move is brewing, yet the medium-term pathway is clear if circumstances align: Madrid want an elite two-way right back for the post-Carvajal cycle and Hakimi checks every box. The bond with Madrid and recent dynamics around squad evolution keep this one warm, even if the earliest realistic window looks further down the road.

In remarks attributed to SportMediaset, agent Alejandro Camaño said Hakimi is happy at PSG with a deal through 2029, while acknowledging that Real Madrid is his home. Hakimi is a La Fábrica product, shone on loan at Dortmund, won Serie A with Inter, then moved to PSG in 2021. He has been a core starter in Paris, thriving in both back four and wing back roles. The right back market at the top end is thin, making his profile highly valuable. The subtext is simple: no push to leave now, but the emotional and sporting bridge to Madrid still stands.

Impact Analysis

If you are Real Madrid, this is the perfect public signal without committing a euro: the player’s camp validates the emotional link while stressing stability at PSG. It lowers temperature in the short term and keeps long-term optionality intact. From a sporting view, Madrid’s right side remains elite with Dani Carvajal, but minutes are managed carefully. An eventual succession plan that pairs an explosive runner with Madrid’s narrow front could be decisive in big Champions League ties. Hakimi brings top speed, recovery runs, high-volume overlaps, and final-third output that complements Madrid’s inside forwards.

For PSG, the message protects asset value. A 2029 contract gives leverage and time. If ever a sale becomes logical, it will be on their terms and at a premium. Internally, PSG rely on Hakimi to stretch play and to press high, especially against low blocks in Ligue 1 and when transitioning in Europe. Replacing his vertical threat would be expensive and tactically disruptive.

In the market, this hint nudges other contenders to monitor but not bid now. A realistic fee today would be enormous. In 2026 or 2027, amortization and contract runway could soften the stance. Until then, Madrid can scout, plan cap tables, and assess academy and mid-tier options, while PSG maximize sporting value. Everyone wins in the short term, and the storyline stays alive.

Reaction

Fan chatter has been lively. Madrid supporters split between romance and pragmatism. Some point to Carvajal’s enduring form and ask why change what works. Others dream of a turbo-charged right flank built for knockout football and see Hakimi as the final piece. A few fans joked they already have Trent - that’s fan talk, not a reflection of current reality - while many noted age curves and timing, with one pointing out Hakimi would be about 31 near the end of his PSG deal.

PSG fans sound calm. The recurring chorus: he is settled, the team is built for him, and there’s no sporting reason to leave a side that dominates domestically and aims deep in Europe. Neutrals call this classic agent positioning - keep every path open without burning bridges. Some Madridistas regret not bringing him back from Inter earlier, framing it as the cleanest path that got away. Across platforms, the tone is curious rather than frantic. Most accept that nothing moves this summer, while keeping a watchful eye on the medium term. It is the kind of rumor that never dies, because it doesn’t need to. It just waits for the right conditions.

Social reactions

He’s settled in Paris, but you can never rule out Madrid. Football is wild like that.

Well hes gonna be 31 by that time.

I wish we signed Hakimi instead of Trent.. If only Real Madrid bought him back from Inter it wouldn't been as complicated to sign Hakimi. He would've been the perfect longterm replacement for Carvajal.

Prediction

Short term: Hakimi stays at PSG. He is central to their structure, and there is no sporting or contractual pressure to change course. Expect his usage to remain heavy in big matches, with tailored recovery windows to protect his sprint load. From Madrid’s side, internal options and incremental targets keep the depth chart secure while the front office models future cap and fee scenarios.

Medium term - 2026 to 2027: this is the live window. PSG could revisit extension incentives or, if the project pivots, entertain an elite sale. Madrid’s calculus depends on Carvajal’s minutes, UCL outcomes, and the balance of investment across midfield and attack. If Madrid decide the right flank needs a decisive thrust, Hakimi will sit at the top of a very short list. A fee in the high end of the market would be required, and player desire will be the fulcrum.

Wildcard: if PSG make a structural change that dampens full back freedom, or if Madrid retools toward an ultra-wide 4-3-3 in which the right back overlaps relentlessly, the sporting logic accelerates. Either way, the bridge is there. The speed of traffic across it will be dictated by trophies, tactics, and timing.

Conclusion

This is a gentle green light, not a starting gun. Hakimi’s camp reaffirmed comfort and commitment in Paris while planting a clear marker that Madrid remains special. From what I hear on both sides, no one wants noise this summer. But both clubs understand how rare it is to find a right back with elite pace, high defensive range, and end-product in the box. That scarcity keeps the file open.

If the stars align in two summers - aging curve, tactical need, and market dynamics - Madrid will press. PSG will only talk from a position of strength. For now, enjoy the football. Hakimi is in his prime, PSG rely on him, and Madrid are winning with what they have. The story will breathe on its own. When it is time, you will feel the pace pick up. Until then, this is a respectful nod across a familiar bridge.
