Morocco’s Hakimi Returns from Injury, Set to Face Brazil in Friendly Match

24 March 2023 – byGinette · 1 min read

The Atlas Lions had their first collective training session on Thursday, at the Mohammed VI football complex, 48 hours before their friendly match against Brazil. Achraf Hakimi, who was injured and out for several games with PSG, has joined his teammates.

Despite his call-up, supporters were wondering if Achraf Hakimi would be able to play, especially due to his prolonged absence due to injury when he was playing for PSG. But his presence at the collective training session is proof that he is fully recovered and fit to face Brazil with his teammates.

Even if it is a friendly match, this match has many challenges. On the one hand, there is the Seleçao, the leader of the FIFA ranking and multiple world champion. On the other hand, there are the Atlas Lions, the fourth largest team in the last World Cup, during which Brazil did not shine.

On Thursday, during the training session, Walid Regragui insisted on technical and tactical aspects. The last session will be held on Friday evening at the Grand Stade de Tanger.
