00:00It's a first since 1998. The Moroccan has won the African Ballon d'Or, and the honour
00:07goes to Ashraf Hakimi. The PSG right-back delivered one of the greatest seasons ever
00:12by a defender, sweeping every major trophy, the Champions League, Ligue 1, the French
00:19Cup and the Trophée des Champions. Hakimi was decisive on every stage, scoring in the
00:25Champions League quarter-finals, semi-finals and final, finishing the season with 11 goals
00:30and 17 assists in 55 matches. His performances even made him a serious contender for the Global
00:37Ballon d'Or, where he finished sixth. After narrowly missing the African award last year,
00:43Hakimi vowed to come back stronger, and he did.
