DBasia.news – Achraf Hakimi performed brilliantly in his first two matches with Inter Milan. Antonio Conte’s scheme is said to have made it easier for him to adapt.
Inter continued to achieve positive results in the continued 2020/2021 Italian League. The Nerazzurri successfully crushed Benevento 5-2 at the Stadio Ciro Vigorito, Wednesday (30/9/2020) evening, WIB.
Hakimi is starting at Inter for the first time after being signed from Real Madrid this summer. The player from Morocco contributed one goal and one assist.
Before fighting Benevento, Hakimi also had an impact on Inter at home to Fiorentina. Entering in the 64th minute to replace Ashley Young, Hakimi contributed an assist for Romelu Lukaku’s goal. Inter also won 4-3 in that match after being behind twice.
In total, from the two matches that passed for 116 minutes, Hakimi contributed one goal and two assists. A great start for the 21-year-old player.
Hakimi admits that he has no difficulty adapting to Inter’s game scheme under Conte’s direction. He has previously played with a five-man midfield pattern while on loan at Borussia Dortmund.
“I am thrilled with all this, I adapted well and learned what the coach wants from me,” Hakimi told Sky Sport Italia.
“It’s a very positive start. I’ve played in midfield with five people at Borussia Dortmund, so I know that role and my team-mates are also helping to adapt as quickly as possible,” he continued.
Hakimi thinks Inter has a great squad. This could be the capital for the Nerazzurri to win the Scudetto again after the last one was obtained in 2009/2010.
“We are working for it (Scudetto). We have a squad that is suitable to achieve it,” Hakimi insisted.
