ACHRAF HAKIMI is reportedly looking to QUIT Paris Saint-Germain after falling out with Lionel Messi and Neymar.
Journalist Daniel Riolo claims the flying full-back is ‘fed up and wants to leave’ as PSG’s South American stars ‘don’t speak with him’.

Hakimi, 23, only joined the French side from Inter Milan last summer for £55million.
The former Real Madrid star rejected advances from Chelsea in order to sign for Mauricio Pochettino’s side.
But Hakimi has struggled to replicate last season’s form, scoring three goals in 32 games.
Indeed, the attacking wing-back has come under fire for his lack of contribution in the final third.
And Riolo says Hakimi is now going ‘crazy’ at PSG after falling out with Messi, Neymar and other South American teammates.
The claims come amid speculation over Messi’s future, with the Argentine linked with a return to Barcelona.
Meanwhile, Neymar has emerged as a shock target for ambitious Newcastle.
Riolo told RMC Sport: “Hakimi is going crazy, the South Americans don’t talk to him anymore.

“He already wants to leave Paris, he is fed up. In this team his qualities have never exploded, so maybe you have to give him up.
“I criticised Hakimi for his fluctuating form, but it must be said that in this team he struggles to express his qualities.
“He is angry and it’s normal, he can’t take it anymore.”
Should Hakimi indeed leave PSG, Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel could be tempted to go in for him again.
The Moroccan, who can play on the right and left flanks, would be an ideal fit in Chelsea’s 3-4-3 system.
However, Real Madrid are thought to retain an interest, having sold Hakimi after just nine LaLiga appearances.
Borussia Dortmund might also jump at the chance of re-signing Hakimi after he became a smash hit during two seasons on loan with the Germans.
