Borussia Dortmund chief Hans-Joachim Watzke has declared plans to keep hold of Achraf Hakimi.
The fullback is currently on-loan at BVB from Real Madrid and has so far impressed this season.
And Watzke admits they're already planning to buy Hakimi after triggering the permanent option in the deal for Barcelona striker Paco Alcacer last week.
"Dear Paco Alcacer, welcome to Borussia Dortmund. We will try to do the same with you," he said, referring to Hakimi.
"It will not be easy."
Watzke conceding that with no buy option in the deal, negotiations with Real could prove difficult.
