The agent of Chelsea transfer target Achraf Hakimi has confirmed that Inter Milan have begrudgingly decided to sell the defender this summer.

Thomas Tuchel is looking to improve the squad over the course of the transfer window and adding a new defender to the squad has been on the agenda of the German boss.

That has led to speculation in the media that the club have already begun making moves to try and secure a transfer deal for the impressive Hakimi, who is now regarded as one of the best right-backs in Europe.

Argentina striker Lauturo Martinez has been heavily linked with an exit from the San Siro but Alejandro Camano, who represents both players, says Hakimi has been chosen as the main departure, which will hand the club a massive boost.

‘The only one who is going to leave Inter for now is Hakimi, who I also represent,’ said Camano on the Metro website

‘[With Lautaro] there is still no clear situation. [But Hakimi] he is going.

Tuchel vowed not to make wholesale changed to his squad after the victory against Manchester City in Porto: ‘Two or three (signings) could be very, very good,’ said Tuchel recently

‘It’s a constant thing to never deny change; that you always bring new energy, new guys who question the old beliefs, who challenge everybody in the training and in matches, so I think it’s a good thing.

‘We don’t need another seven and another complete turnover because it’s also our job to keep on improving, because we have still a young squad and it’s not about stealing from them the chance to prove it again, that they are capable of growing and evolving. But we have some ideas, of course, to make the group stronger, and I think this can always be a positive thing to challenge all of us.’
