PSG still want Hakimi despite Inter’s high asking price. The Nerazzurri have labeled the Moroccan at €80 million. However, they have agreed to pull the price down to €70 million as the bonuses will make up the difference. Paris are trying to negotiate and bring Inter to agree with €60 million. Suning have decided to cut costs and initiate transfers before bringing anyone in this season. They have to raise €80 million this season through player sales. At the moment, the financial condition of the Nerazzurri has improved a bit.
Since the owners will receive three-year funding of €275 million from Oaktree Capitals. Earlier, in March this year, the Nerazzurri took a €250 million loan from Gold Sachs for the 2020-21 season. In fact, Suning had to take this decision quicker than earlier as FIGC had given an end-of-May deadline to the Chinese owners. The pending salaries had to be paid before the end of the month of May. However, Suning proposed a wage cut to the players and most of them denied it. But it turns out that the Suning will still do that before the summer window.
PSG still want Hakimi but are unable to negotiate a deal

And they have been trying to fix a deal with Inter for the same. Achraf Hakimi joined Inter from Real Madrid in July 2020 for €40 million. He has had a strong season and an added plus is to be a part of Scudetto-winning Inter. He has made 37 appearances, scoring seven goals and providing 8 assists in Serie A.

Since Lukaku is going to stay at Inter.
