Renowned Coach Praises Achraf Hakimi’s Exceptional Season with PSG
**Paris, September 2023** – Achraf Hakimi has been a standout performer for Paris Saint-Germain this season, demonstrating an exceptional level of play both on the collective and individual fronts. The Moroccan full-back has truly elevated his game, earning recognition as one of the best in his position globally.
The rise of a defensive dynamo
**Hakimi’s impressive performances** have solidified his status as an indispensable asset for PSG’s coach, Luis Enrique. At just 26 years old, his consistency in both defensive and offensive plays, coupled with outstanding physical prowess, has set him apart. **His former coach at Borussia Dortmund, Lucien Favre**, recently shared insights into Hakimi’s growth during an interview with Le Parisien.
“Hakimi was always an attacking force during his time at Dortmund,” Favre remarked. **”His current form at Paris is phenomenal**. He is versatile, adding numbers in attack, sometimes playing inside and between positions. **He has evolved into a true leader**, and his defensive awareness has improved significantly.”
Ballon d’Or aspirations
There is increasing speculation about **Hakimi’s potential to win the prestigious Ballon d’Or**. His remarkable performances have not gone unnoticed, and some pundits believe he deserves to be in the running for the accolade, set to be awarded on September 22 in Paris.
**Football analyst Kevin Diaz** shared his thoughts on the competition, stating, “While Ousmane Dembélé and Lamine Yamal have had stellar seasons, I’d cast my vote for Hakimi. His consistency and contributions, both for PSG and his national team, are commendable.”
Diaz continued, “Hakimi possesses extraordinary attributes. **His attacking statistics rival those of strikers** in certain leagues. He is a player that commands respect and admiration, always delivering on the field. His role has evolved significantly, and alongside players like Nuno Mendes, he is revolutionizing the modern full-back position under Luis Enrique’s guidance.”
