Achraf Hakimi pledges future to Serie A leaders Inter Milan in huge blow to suitors Arsenal... as right back insists 'I hope to stay at this club for a long time, I'm very happy'

Premier League club Arsenal have been dealt a transfer blow after Achraf Hakimi revealed that he wants to stay at Inter Milan for 'a long time'.

The 22-year-old flying full-back only made his way to San Siro in the summer of 2020 after a successful loan spell at Borussia Dortmund from Real Madrid.

After attracting much interest from around Europe, Inter were able to snatch his signature but due to financial troubles, clubs targeting Hakimi were put back on alert amid a potential sale at the end of this season.
