Achraf Hakimi Forced Off Injured in PSG Clash With Brest

Casablanca — Paris Saint-Germain defender Achraf Hakimi was forced off with an injury during his side’s Ligue 1 encounter with Brest tonight.

PSG opened the scoring early through Spanish forward Ferran Torres, but the French champions were dealt a setback in the 39th minute when Hakimi was unable to continue after a collision with a Brest player.

The Moroccan defender was subsequently replaced by Spanish midfielder Fabian Ruiz.

The nature and severity of Hakimi’s injury have yet to be confirmed, with medical examinations expected to determine the extent of the problem and the length of any potential absence.

The incident comes as Hakimi continues to be an important figure for both PSG and the Moroccan national team.

However, the right-back is already suspended for Morocco’s upcoming Africa Cup of Nations qualifying matches against Gabon and Lesotho following disciplinary sanctions stemming from the incidents surrounding the recent AFCON final against Senegal.

Morocco will host Gabon on September 25 before traveling to South Africa to face Lesotho four days later.

Hakimi’s latest injury will therefore be primarily monitored by PSG, with further medical updates expected to clarify his condition and recovery timeline.
