In the penalties that we have seen, he has an important ballistic capacity from a distance. But I see him at the end of training that when he stops to shoot penalties with the others, I think that If we reach the final in a competition, they all have to die before they let Hakimi take the penalty, he's a real sucker, worse than me when he played. But he is a player who is growing, he has room for improvement, he is a young boy, many times he does not see the play immediately, he is improving from all points of view and I am happy. “
