PSG's Luis Enrique Addresses Hakimi's International Call-Up
In a recent turn of events for Paris Saint-Germain (PSG), head coach Luis Enrique made it clear that while he fully supports Achraf Hakimi's selection for the Moroccan national team, his priority remains the player's health. Hakimi was notably absent from the squad for the highly anticipated match against Olympique de Marseille, raising questions about his readiness to participate in upcoming international fixtures. Despite his absence for PSG, Hakimi has been called up for Morocco's next international gathering, a situation that has sparked discussions among fans and analysts alike.
After PSG's narrow victory over Marseille, which ended 2-1 in favor of the Parisian club, Luis Enrique addressed the media regarding the situation surrounding Hakimi. The coach emphasized his confidence in the player, stating, "This is not my decision. I have complete trust in him. He cannot play in the next international match, but we are in communication with the national team. We understand how important it is for players to represent their country. I am happy that he is going, but we did not want to take any risks. Health comes first. We will stay connected, as always." This statement underscores Enrique's commitment to player welfare while navigating the complexities of club and international football schedules.
