Tuesday evening, the sky fell on Achraf Hakimi’s head. Tackled from behind by Luis Diaz during the PSG-Bayern Munich clash, the Moroccan left the field in tears. His condition worried the capital club like Morocco, which is preparing to host the CAN on December 21. Yesterday at the end of the day, the French champions gave news of the right side. “Achraf Hakimi suffers from a severe sprain of his left ankle, which will lead to several weeks of unavailability”could we read on the press release.
If no length of unavailability has been revealed, the Spanish press, close to the player’s entourage, has mentioned between 8 and 10 weeks of downtime. Uncertain, Hakimi is a strong element of the team led by Walid Regragui. But the Atlas Lions coach already has an option if Hakimi were to miss the competition or part of the tournament. Al Mountakhab assures that Noussair Mazraoui is the option considered by the coach. The Manchester United player notably replaced the Parisian during his absence against Tanzania.
