Luis Enrique names 'best right-back in the world'

Paris Saint-Germain manager, Luis Enrique, has named Achraf Hakimi as the best right-back in the world.

Enrique stated this after the Moroccan’s impressive display in PSG’s Ligue 1 victory against Le Havre on Friday.

Hakimi scored a hat-trick and provided two assists as PSG defeated Le Havre 5-1 at Stade CMA CGM Oceane.

“Hakimi is more of a striker. He plays higher, he has this ability to make calls and deliver assists,” Enrique said of Hakimi at his post-match interview.

“He’s clearly a striker when we have the ball. And when we don’t have it, everyone is a defender. He’s the best right-back in the world.”

Hakimi joined PSG from Serie A giants Inter Milan in 2021 and his contract will expire in 2029.
