Having Achraf Hakimi and Kylian Mbappe playing on the same team is perhaps unfair on a lot of PSG’s rivals as both talents are one of the best in their positions today. Both players impressed greatly in the Parisiens win over Real Madrid in the Champions League Round of 16 first leg and look to be vital if PSG are to go all the way in the competition this season.
Having put up a dominant performance against Madrid the players have taken some time off to relax and recharge their batteries. For Hakimi, this time is spent like many other football fans: playing FIFA.
The right-back was spotted playing Pro Clubs on FIFA 22 along with French mixed-martial artist Ciryl Gane on Twitch. The lucky viewers who stayed on the stream long enough got a surprise appearance from Kylian Mbappe as the forward joined the game for a small cameo.
It should not come as a surprise that Mbappe scored a goal in the short time he had the controls as he lived up to Hakimi’s “Golden Boy” tease during the stream.
Shortly after saying hello to the fans watching along, Mbappe took over control of Hakimi’s custom player. The forward teased Hakimi for using “PES” type controls and asked to change them back to classic settings before scoring using Hakimi’s player with an instant impact.

Whether it be on the pitch or off it, both Hakimi and Mbappe seem to be developing a solid partnership between themselves and this is exactly what all PSG fans would be hoping for as the club continues its elusive chase of the Champions League trophy.
