Achraf Hakimi came to prominence during his loan spell at Borussia Dortmund

Inter Milan have signed defender Achraf Hakimi from Real Madrid on a five-year deal.

The Morocco full-back, 21, made just 17 appearances for Real and has spent the last two seasons on loan at Bundesliga club Borussia Dortmund.

Inter have paid 40m euros (£36m) with 5m euros of add-ons for the Madrid academy graduate.

In a statement Real thanked Hakimi for his service and wished him well in his "new chapter".

Hakimi, who can play at right- or left-back, as well as in midfield, was pictured attending a medical in Italy on Tuesday.

He made more than 70 appearances for Dortmund, scoring 12 goals.
