Achraf Hakimi made history in Paris Saint-Germain’s 3-0 victory over Red Bull Salzburg in the UEFA Champions League by becoming the defender with the most assists in the club’s history. With two crucial assists in the game, Hakimi matched the record of club legend Maxwell, both now standing at 24 assists in PSG colors.
The Moroccan full-back delivered his first decisive pass in the 30th minute, finding Gonçalo Ramos, who calmly slotted the ball home to give PSG the lead. Hakimi’s vision and pinpoint accuracy were once again on display in the 85th minute when he set up Désiré Doué for the team’s third goal, capping a dominant performance.
Nuno Mendes had earlier doubled PSG’s advantage in the 72nd minute with a brilliant strike, as Luis Enrique’s side cruised to a commanding victory.
Hakimi’s achievement cements his place in PSG’s history books and highlights his significant contribution to the team’s attacking prowess. At just 25 years old, Hakimi’s ability to create chances from the back continues to elevate his status as one of the best full-backs in the world.
With plenty of games left in the season, Hakimi is poised to surpass Maxwell and stand alone as PSG’s all-time assist leader among defenders—a testament to his brilliance and consistency since joining the club.
