Achraf Hakimi is in a race against time… Victim of a heinous tackle from Luis Diaz, during Bayern Munich’s victory against PSG (1-2), last November 4 in the Champions League, the 27-year-old left-back is already out for the end of the year with the capital club.
The Moroccan international suffers “a severe sprain of the left ankle, which will result in unavailability for several weeks”informed the European champions the day after his injury. According to RMC Sport, the former Inter player should be unavailable between six and eight weeks.
Therefore, its participation in the African Cup of Nations, which will take place from December 21, 2025 to January 18, 2026 in Morocco, is uncertain. But Hakimi, who decided not to have an operation to optimize his chances of being able to play the tournament with the Atlas Lions, is clearly putting all the chances on his side to be recovered in time.
Hakimi displays his determination
This Saturday, the Parisian published several photos of himself on his Instagram account showing his determination. In these photos, we can see him training in the gym with his left ankle brace.
“We will put in place the best medical protocol so that Achraf is back for the CAN and 100%”recently assured Moroccan coach Walid Regragui, and added: “ Achraf Hakimi is the first player I check off the list every time. I still have the conviction that he is a player who can get back into shape faster than the others. Achraf will do everything to be at the CAN. We will accompany him. »
