ARSENAL could be set for a major transfer boost after Achraf Hakimi’s agent suggested ‘all players have a price’.
The Inter Milan full-back is highly sought after and agent Alejandro Camano hinted at a potential move this summer.
Inter need to sell players to balance the books, and could offload the right-back in a bid to cut the wage budget by 20% while raising £86.5million in transfer fees.
Hakimi alone could fetch £51.5m, with PSG said to be eyeing a deal for the Morocco international.
But Arsenal could also fancy their chances of landing the transfer target following Camano’s admission.
He told Telelombardia: “In the future I don’t know, all players have a price and I believe that if all of Europe has seen Inter and their title-winning football, all the players will be taken into consideration.
“There is no situation at the moment (with Hakimi). I haven’t talked to any club and I don’t think Inter have either. It is a difficult time for football, there is a difficult economic situation.
“I think it is not possible today to say who will leave Inter to fix this difficult economic situation.
“He (Hakimi) is very young, joining Inter was a very intelligent decision. When the transfer window opens, we receive calls for all the players.
“The transfer market begins and if Inter are in trouble we will understand what to do. The market will tell.”

As well as Arsenal and PSG, Chelsea are another club that has been linked with Hakimi.
Bayern Munich have also been credited with an interest in Hakimi, so the full-back could be in a privileged position to choose his destination this summer.
However, with no concrete offers for the 22-year-old according to his agent, Arsenal still have a chance to sign him, particularly as Inter may be open to selling.
