Morocco & Dortmund star Achraf Hakimi beats Nigeria duo Chukwueze and Osimhen to African Youth Player of the Year.

Hakimi is halfway into his second season at Dortmund. He was a key member of the BVB side that finished Bundesliga runners-up in 2018/19, and has continued to impress at home and abroad this term.

The 21-year-old has already featured in 25 matches in all competitions for Dortmund this season, registering six goals and as many assists. 

He scored his first career brace in Dortmund's 2-0 win at Slavia Prague in Champions League Group F, before orchestrating a stunning comeback from 2-0 down with another double in a 3-2 home win over Inter Milan. The Real loanee is the highest-scoring defender in this season's competition.
