The Moroccan international player has continued to impress since his arrival at Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) during the last summer transfer window. Achraf Hakimi was named the best Arab player in the French Ligue 1 Uber Eats for the month of August.
The 22-year-old received the award following his outstanding performance wearing PSG’s jersey throughout the matches of last month. The fans were particularly taken by his pace and the great chemistry he has while playing alongside Kylian Mbappe.
In a fan poll sponsored by the official account of Ligue 1 on Facebook, the Moroccan international player ranked first after getting the majority of the votes ahead of his compatriot and Angers SCO midfielder Sofiane Boufal and Algeria’s Andy Delort.
Hakimi made his debut in the Ligue 1 last month. The former Inter Milan player participated in 4 matches in the competition where he contributed significantly to his team’s victories with noteworthy defensive and offensive performances. Thanks to his speed and dribbling skills, he managed to score one goal and set up two others for his teammates
Sofiane Boufal, meanwhile, scored 2 goals from his 4 appearances, leading his team to place second after Hakimi’s PSG.
This award comes days after the Moroccan Professional Footballers Union (UMFP) awarded Achraf Hakimi the trophy for the Best Moroccan Player in Foreign Leagues for the 2020-2021 season.
As part of its plans to clinch the Champions League title, PSG paid €71 million (add-ons included) to sign the versatile right-back, making him the most expensive defender in the club’s history.
