Manchester United are ahead of Chelsea in the race to sign £60million Paris Saint-Germain right-back Achraf Hakimi, according to Football Insider via Manchester Evening News.

PSG are reportedly open to selling the Morocco international right-back this summer if they receive a fee of around £60million.

Manchester United are reportedly willing to pay the fee to sign Hakimi but while the Red Devils are ahead of Chelsea, competition exists from elsewhere across Europe, with Hakimi’s preference to join a club competing in the Champions League next season.
