Achraf Hakimi's touching message for Nayef Aguerd

Starting against the Gunners in Budapest this Saturday evening, Achraf Hakimi is playing one of the most important matches of his career. Regularly lined up by Luis Enrique this season, the Moroccan now joins a very closed circle.

With 77 matches played in C1, the Parisian occupies fourth place in the ranking of the most capped African players in European competition, ahead of Michael Essien (76) and behind Mohamed Salah (98), Didier Drogba (92) and Samuel Eto’o (78).
