Friendship is for life off the pitch. Very close to French forward Kylian Mbappé since their time together at Paris Saint-Germain, Moroccan right-back Achraf Hakimi knows that friendship will stay in the dressing room on Thursday. On Instagram, Hakimi reassured Atlas Lions supporters with a strong statement: “We will not be friends with Kylian Mbappé on the pitch.”

Hakimi Ready for a Huge France vs Morocco Battle

Mbappé and Hakimi’s bromance stops at the edge of the pitch. The two men know each other perfectly, shared the same dressing room in Paris for a long time and still have a very strong relationship. But this time, they will be opponents, with a place in the semi-finals at stake.

The duel promises to be huge. On one side, Kylian Mbappé, captain of Les Bleus and France’s attacking leader. On the other, Achraf Hakimi, a key figure for Morocco, a major PSG player and one of the best right-backs in the world. Two speed monsters, two competitors, but only one ticket to the final four.

And Hakimi will not only come up against Mbappé. Several Paris Saint-Germain players could also be involved in this clash. Ousmane Dembélé, Désiré Doué and Bradley Barcola are among the French attacking weapons capable of causing Morocco serious problems. For PSG, this France-Morocco showdown will therefore have a special flavour, with Hakimi on the Moroccan side and several Paris talents among Les Bleus. On Thursday, there will be no gifts. Hakimi has made it clear: friendship can wait until after the match. For 90 minutes, and maybe more, France-Morocco promises to be an electric battle with a strong PSG feel.
