Rape-accused footballer hailed for 'shrewd' divorce

Moroccan footballer Achraf Hakimi, who plays for Paris Saint-Germain (PSG), has been hailed by fans after his recent divorce from actress Hiba Abouk. Despite allegations of infidelity and rape, Hakimi’s ex-wife initially sought half of his €70m net worth in the divorce settlement. However, it was revealed in court that Hakimi’s assets were registered in his mother’s name, leaving him with very little on paper. As a result, Hakimi is expected to receive half of his ex-wife’s net worth, estimated at $3m, as financial support. IoL reports that the footballer and his Spanish wife separated after three years of marriage amid rumours of infidelity and rape claims. Last month, Hakimi was placed under judicial supervision after being charged with rape.
