Achraf Hakimi, the 27-year-old right-back for Paris Saint-Germain and Morocco, attended a press conference this Sunday ahead of the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations. On the eve of his national team's match against Zambia, he was asked to comment on his possible return to competition following his ankle injury at the beginning of November.
"I feel good. The coach and the staff and I have followed a program. I didn’t feel 100% in the last matches, but I was available. I feel much better now. If I have to play, I’m ready. Otherwise, I’ll help as I have been doing from the bench. Even if I don’t play, I want to win the AFCON."
Without confirming that he will play on Monday, since it’s not his decision to make, Hakimi gives some fairly positive indications. His return is getting closer and could happen this Monday, even if not as a starter.
This would be excellent news for him and Morocco, who have a decisive match to play for qualification and then hope to go far. PSG can also be pleased to see their player back on the field to regain rhythm and confidence. All of this is being managed with considerable wisdom and caution.
