The powerful words of Walid Regragui on Achraf Hakimi

Is he the best right back in the world? Everyone has their own sensitivity. Is he one of the best right-backs in the world? The answer is obviously “yes”. Bluffing since the start of the season with PSG, Achraf Hakimi reminds in each match of his importance in this collective, where he has established himself among the leaders. It is not for nothing that Luis Enrique made him one of his vice captains, in the absence of Marquinhos. Recently, the Asturian had even declared about the Moroccan that he was “the best right-back” that he has seen in his career.

Walid Regragui hasn’t gone that far, but certainly doesn’t think any less of it. In an interview given to Téléfoot this Sunday, the Morocco coach declared that his player was today, according to him, the best in the world in his position: “for me, he is the best right-back in the world, at least currently (…) It is not enough to have an armband to be captain, Achraf, without having had it, has always been a leader, and That’s why it makes him a natural captain.” The Parisian should also be rewarded with a contract extension in Paris, and perhaps a coronation at the African Ballon d’Or, this Monday.
