Morocco international Achraf Hakimi continues to cement his status among football’s elite defenders, with career statistics that underline his extraordinary impact at both club and international level.
The Paris Saint-Germain star has already amassed an impressive 441 senior appearances, scoring 61 goals and providing 93 assists. Such attacking numbers are exceptional for a player operating primarily as a right-back, highlighting his unique ability to influence matches in the final third.
Hakimi’s trophy cabinet is equally impressive. The 27-year-old has won 19 major trophies during a career that has seen him represent some of Europe’s biggest clubs, including Real Madrid, Borussia Dortmund, Inter Milan and Paris Saint-Germain. His success has been matched by individual recognition, most notably being crowned African Footballer of the Year.
What makes Hakimi stand out is his consistency across different leagues and competitions. Whether in Spain, Germany, Italy, France or on the international stage with Morocco, he has remained one of the most influential full-backs in world football.
The Moroccan captain played a crucial role in his country’s historic run to the semi-finals of the 2022 FIFA World Cup and has continued to be a leader for both club and country. His blend of pace, technical ability, defensive awareness and attacking output has made him one of the most complete modern full-backs in the game.
With 61 goals, 93 assists, 19 trophies and numerous memorable performances already to his name, Hakimi’s résumé places him firmly in the conversation for the title of the best right-back in world football.
As he enters the prime years of his career, the question is no longer whether Hakimi belongs among the elite, but whether anyone currently playing his position can match his overall impact on the game.
