Morocco and Paris Saint-Germain star Achraf Hakimi has been crowned the 2025 Player of the Year by the Confederation of African Football (CAF)
The 27-year-old defender edged out Victor Osimhen of Nigeria (Galatasaray) and Egypt’s Mohamed Salah (Liverpool), taking over from Ademola Lookman, last year’s winner.

Hakimi, who had finished as runner-up for the past two years, played a pivotal role in PSG’s historic season, helping the club win Ligue 1, the French Cup, and their first-ever UEFA Champions League title.
Currently sidelined with an injury, Hakimi attended Monday’s awards ceremony with his foot heavily strapped, highlighting his determination to be present despite his setback.
