Achraf Hakimi

CAN 2025 kicks off in just three weeks. Achraf Hakimi is pulling out all the stops to return in time for Morocco.

Determined to get back on the pitch quickly and play in CAN 2025 on home soil, Achraf Hakimi is leaving nothing to chance. The Moroccan international continues to prove, day after day, his relentless competitive spirit.

"Achraf Hakimi is doubling his efforts, spending nearly six hours a day on rehabilitation to return at the right moment and help his national team," explained Nasser Larguet in an interview with RMC Sport. The Technical Director of Saudi Arabia, who convinced the former Borussia Dortmund player to join Morocco in 2016, said he is thoroughly impressed. These positive signs have also been noted by Walid Regragui, head coach of the Atlas Lions.

"The best thing would be for him to recover just in time for CAN. When he comes back, he’ll be a beast. We’re going to have some heated discussions when he returns, because he’s a machine," the Moroccan coach told Canal+.
