Hakimi Injury Scare Eases Before Ligue 1 Clasico

Paris Saint-Germain’s narrow win at Brest came at a cost on Sunday night, but the club moved quickly on Monday to calm fears over Achraf Hakimi.

The Morocco international was forced off during the 1–0 victory, clutching his leg and sparking immediate concern on the PSG bench. From the touchline, Luis Enrique could only admit he didn’t yet know how serious it was. The images of Hakimi limping away told their own story.

The medical update has now done the rest.

On their official website, the French champions confirmed that Hakimi suffered “a minor injury to his right thigh” in the clash with Stade Brest. The club stated that the right-back will receive medical treatment for two days, with “an additional medical examination” scheduled once that short period is over.

The key detail for PSG fans? Barring any setback in those follow-up checks, Hakimi is expected to be available for next Sunday’s Ligue 1 Clasico against Olympique Marseille.

A tight away win, a brief injury scare, and now a crucial piece of reassurance before one of the defining fixtures of PSG’s season.
