13 March 2023 at 15:17 Morocco boss supports rape accused Hakimi PSG defender Achraf Hakimi (24) has been named in Morocco’s national team squad even though he is being investigated for an alleged rape. In connection with the withdrawal, Morocco’s national team manager, Walid Regragui, says that he supports his star player. – We, and all Moroccans, stand behind Achraf. He is innocent until proven guilty, says Regragui. – I talk to Achraf often, as I do with many players. He is calm, and that is the most important thing. He is a strong person both on and off the pitch. First of all, we have to think about football. He has people who take care of the rest for him, the Morocco manager continues. The Moroccans surprised by reaching the semi-finals of the football World Cup before Christmas. Later in the month, Hakimi and his teammates will face Brazil and Peru in friendlies. The defender is also supported by club team Paris Saint-Germain and recently played after being injured for a period. Hakimi is accused of raping a 24-year-old woman in February, but denies the charges. (© NTB)
