Adil Rami: "Achraf Hakimi Deserves the Ballon d'Or"
The Moroccan star Achraf Hakimi, a player for Paris Saint-Germain, continues to attract praise from top followers in the world of football after an exceptional season where he excelled both defensively and offensively, confirming his place among the elite full-backs in the world.
Former French international defender Adil Rami praised Hakimi's outstanding performance, considering that awarding the Ballon d'Or to a player in the right-back position would represent a revolutionary step in evaluating positions within the game.
Rami said in media statements: "For me, Dembélé deserves the Ballon d'Or, but if we want to break the traditional mold and give real value to other positions, then Achraf Hakimi deserves it without a doubt."
He added: "Achraf puts in an extraordinary effort in every match, continually developing within the largest clubs, and he is still young, which is a significant advantage for him."
Hakimi had a strong season with Paris Saint-Germain, combining speed, offensive effectiveness, and defensive stability, making him one of the key pillars in the Parisian team's lineup, in addition to his pivotal role in the Moroccan national team.
With the growing discussion about changing the criteria for selecting individual award winners, Hakimi's name is strongly mentioned as a living example of the injustice faced by defensive positions compared to attacking stars.
