Members of the Morocco national football team have publicly expressed their support for teammate Achraf Hakimi, who is under investigation for alleged rape in France. The case, which came to light in early 2026, involves accusations from a woman who claims she was assaulted by the Paris Saint-Germain defender.
Hakimi, 27, has denied the allegations through his legal team. The investigation is ongoing, and no charges have been filed as of June 24, 2026. The Moroccan players issued a statement saying they stand by Hakimi during this difficult time, emphasizing their belief in his innocence.
The case has drawn significant media attention in both France and Morocco, where Hakimi is a national hero. He has been a key player for both PSG and the Moroccan national team, which made history by reaching the semifinals of the 2022 FIFA World Cup.
