Achraf Hakimi’s family feud: Mother’s finances under scrutiny amid divorce drama

Achraf Hakimi’s private life exploded into the open this week as court documents unsealed in Madrid laid bare a bitter family feud tied to his mother’s handling of his finances.

What exactly happened?

A Spanish court unsealed filings on 10 July 2026 in a high-profile divorce case involving Hakimi’s ex-wife, Hiba Abouk. The documents allege Hakimi’s mother, Latifa Hakimi, managed large sums linked to the player’s earnings while he played for Paris Saint-Germain. Lawyers for Abouk claim the transfers lacked transparency and violated court orders on asset disclosure. Madrid’s Family Court Number 22 now reviews the claims after Abouk’s legal team filed motions to freeze accounts tied to the transfers.

Why this matters for Achraf Hakimi

Hakimi, 27, remains PSG’s right-back and Morocco’s first-choice full-back ahead of the 2026 Africa Cup of Nations. His club future hinges on the outcome, though PSG has not commented publicly. The allegations do not accuse Hakimi himself of wrongdoing, but they spotlight the finances around his €30 million annual wages and image deals. Moroccan fans and pundits are split: some demand clarity, others argue the saga distracts from his on-field form, where he ranks third among Ligue 1 defenders for successful tackles per game this season.

What comes next?

Madrid’s court set a hearing for 25 July 2026 to decide whether to freeze the disputed accounts. Hakimi’s legal team has until 18 July to file a response. PSG’s sporting director, Luís Campos, declined to comment when asked on Friday. The case could drag into August if motions are appealed, risking further headlines during Morocco’s Cup of Nations preparations. For now, Hakimi trains as usual at Camp des Loges, though his agent, Roger Wittmann, did not respond to multiple requests for comment.
