Achraf Hakimi appeared to aim a brutal dig at Real Madrid after Paris Saint Germain's stunning victory in the FIFA Club World Cup.

Champions League winners PSG were in a rampant mood on Wednesday as they thrashed Madrid 4-0 in the semi-final of the Club World Cup.

The likes of Fabian Ruiz, Ousmane Dembele and Goncalo Ramos were all on the scoresheet as the French champions will now take on Premier League side Chelsea in Sunday's final.

On the other hand, this meant that Madrid will end their 24/25 season with another disappointment, having only won the UEFA Super Cup, which took place back in August last year.

After the match, while speaking to the media, PSG star and former Madrid man Hakimi appeared to aim a little dig at his former club.

As reported by Madrid Zone on social media, Hakimi said: "How did Real Madrid let someone like me leave? It was not me who decided that, it was not me."

The Moroccan full-back started his career at Madrid after joining them from CD Colonia Ofigevi.

After making 17 appearances for Los Blancos during the 17/18 season, Hakimi was loaned to German Bundesliga side Borussia Dortmund before being sold to Italian giants Inter Milan.

In 2021, the 26-year-old signed for PSG in a deal worth a reported fee of €60 million.

Since then, the full-back has played 174 times for the Ligue 1 side, scoring 25 goals.

After winning the Ligue 1 title and the Champions League in the 24/25 campaign, Hakimi and Nuno Mendes have become arguably the best full-back pairing in world football.

Speaking after the match, PSG boss Luis Enrique said: "It is a very special moment for us, Parisians, for all the supporters, the entire club. I think we did a really good job and played a great match. We’re happy, we’re in the final, and it’s been an incredible season.

"We want to win this final. Everyone saw the stifling heat, it’s incredible to play in that. I think it affected both teams, but we kept playing and fighting. I think it’s a beautiful moment for all Parisians."
