Brest v PSG: "The best", Hakimi gets a heartfelt tribute from a teammate

Paris Saint-Germain secured a 0-3 victory against Brest (video highlights Brest/PSG) this Saturday at the Stade Francis Le Blé as part of Matchday 9 of Ligue 1 2025-2026. After the match, Parisian goalkeeper Lucas Chevalier (23 years old) spoke in the mixed zone about the level of Achraf Hakimi, the 26-year-old right-back who scored a brace and was praised by coach Luis Enrique.

Chevalier: “He’s a modern player who can play in several positions.”

“Do you agree with Luis Enrique when he says Achraf Hakimi is the best right-back in the world? I think he is the best, he impresses me with his work rate, his repeated runs, his technical quality in tight spaces. Today, he scored again, he’s solid defensively. He’s a right-back, but at the same time he’s a wing-back, a right winger, I’m sure he could even play on the other side. He’s a modern player who can play in several positions. I share the coach’s opinion.”, comments relayed by Le Parisien.

It’s quite easy to agree with Chevalier regarding Hakimi’s versatility, as he already has a very unique role at PSG. Far from the classic right-back, the Moroccan is often found in midfield or making runs into the box. But he mainly defends on the right side of the area. Armed with exceptional athletic qualities, he can keep going while maintaining his tactical awareness and impressive technique.

Some may debate whether he is the “best” in the world at his position—there are other great players and plenty of opinions. But Hakimi is undoubtedly among the world’s elite. He can certainly appreciate seeing both his coach and teammate speak so highly of him.
