♻️Injury Concerns Mount for Hosts as Hakimi's AFCON Status in Doubt
Star right-back Achraf Hakimi has suffered an ankle injury with PSG, potentially ruling him out of the tournament and casting a shadow over Morocco's preparations.
Reports indicate Hakimi suffered an ankle sprain with possible ligament involvement. While an initial fracture appears to have been avoided, the exact grade of the sprain will determine his recovery time.
A grade 1 sprain could mean a two to three-week absence, while a grade 2 tear could see him out for up to eight weeks.
Hakimi's injury comes at a crucial time for PSG, and he will likely miss several weeks of action. The injury puts his participation in the upcoming Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON), scheduled for late December in his home country of Morocco, in doubt.
