“Hakimi is ours, but anything can happen from this point on,” the coach said at a press conference.

“He’s had a good season, but at this club there are two sides to consider: the economic one and sporting one.

“Now isn’t the time to talk about him. Things may happen soon, but I’m talking about the sporting side of things.

“I’m interested in Achraf’s situation, but it’s something for the club to decide. There’s a club, a player and a coach involved.

“Decisions end up being made it and that’s it.”
