2025 CAF Men's Player of the Year Hakimi celebrates CAF award with Burna Boy’s song

Hakimi enjoyed a stellar 2024-25 campaign for both club and country, winning a quadruple with PSG.

His exceptional contributions for PSG and the Moroccan national team saw him beat fellow finalists Mohamed Salah and Victor Osimhen to the award.

Hakimi became the first defender in 52 years to be crowned Africa's best player, marking a historic achievement for the right-back.

Following his award, the PSG star celebrated by compiling a video of his journey and added an Afrobeat song to the background.

A video shared on the social media platform X captures Hakimi's journey to the awards ceremony in Marrakech. 

The montage features clips of the defender travelling in luxury, walking the red carpet, and showcasing his on-field highlights before the moment he lifted the prestigious trophy.

The soundtrack for the compilation is Burna Boy's 2018 hit song "On The Low", which was one of the top songs that year.

The song's theme of quiet confidence has been seen as a fitting accompaniment to Hakimi's dominant yet composed performances throughout the season.

Hakimi will be looking to continue his impressive performance for Morocco as they host the AFCON competition, starting on December 21st.
