Real Madrid’s Achraf Hakimi ‘prepared’ for Bayern Munich showdown

Real Madrid defender Achraf Hakimi has stated his readiness for Wednesday’s Uefa Champions League encounter against Bayern Munich.

Zinedine Zidane’s men continue their title defence with a visit to the Allianz Arena for the first-leg of their semi-final fixture against the reigning Bundesliga champions.

As the Spanish giants aim for their 13th European title and third in a row, the 19-year-old right-back is eager for his third appearance in the elite European competition.

“Prepared for the semi-finals,” Hakimi tweeted.
