Achraf Hakimi and Luis Enrique
After enduring a grueling season with PSG, Achraf Hakimi will not have a backup this summer. That is the decision made by the French capital club.
After a remarkable campaign that included lifting the Champions League trophy, PSG has no intention of overhauling its squad. Only a few adjustments are expected. The main uncertainty revolves around the future of Gigio Donnarumma, and possibly the arrival of Lucas Chevalier.
Moroccan international Achraf Hakimi has no plans to leave, as he is under contract until 2029. With 55 matches played (11 goals, 16 assists), the Moroccan is one of the most heavily relied-upon players in the squad—and for good reason. He has no natural replacement.
Luis Campos, the club's sporting director, had planned to find him a player who could give him a breather, but according to Le Parisien, Luis Enrique refused. With Warren Zaïre-Emery and Joao Neves both able to fill in at right-back, the Spanish manager feels satisfied with his options.
