Before leaving to play the African Cup of Nations with Morocco, Achraf Hakimi confirmed against Toulouse (2-0) that he was a key player for PSG.

He is perhaps the best player for Paris Saint-Germain this season. Achraf Hakimi has returned to a very high level since the arrival of Luis Enrique and the Moroccan full-back, after a slightly duller period, has once again become indispensable to PSG.

The former Inter player was excellent again against Toulouse (2-0) during the Champions Trophy. Positioned very high, with a lot of freedom, he was very present on his right wing, where his understanding with Ousmane Dembélé worked wonders. He could even have scored from a free kick, but his shot was blocked by the post.

In the meantime, it is clear that Hakimi will leave a big void in his lane in the coming weeks, since he will be with the Moroccan selection for the Africa Cup of Nations. The Atlas Lions, semi-finalists of the 2022 World Cup, will be one of the favorites in this competition.

“Hakimi?” We will miss him “

Some PSG players had a little word for Hakimi after this match. “With the talent he has, he can do anything, thus appreciates Marquinhos, on Prime Video. He wanted to go to the CAN in the best way, he has this competition now. And we are happy to have him, he is a great and very important player for us! »

Same story for Ousmane Dembélé, Hakimi’s friend on the right side. “We will miss him, he is a key player on our team, confided the Parisian winger. I hope he goes as far as possible with Morocco. »
