Borussia Dortmund have signed Morocco international Achraf Hakimi on a season-long loan from Real Madrid.

The 19-year-old defender featured in all three of his country’s games at the World Cup.

He made nine La Liga appearances last season and also played twice in the Champions League, which Real won for the third successive year.

Dortmund sporting director Michael Zorc told his club’s website: “Achraf Hakimi is a young, very dynamic full-back who has played at the highest level at Real Madrid and in the Moroccan national team.”

Madrid-born Hakimi will link up with his new team-mates later this month during the Bundesliga club’s pre-season tour of America.

His arrival at Dortmund follows the sale of Ukraine winger Andriy Yarmolenko to West Ham.
