PSG's Hakimi in Morocco squad despite injury

Morocco captain Achraf Hakimi has been named in the Atlas Lions' World Cup squad despite the injury he sustained in the Champions League semi-finals against Bayern Munich.

The Paris St-Germain full-back, 27, has not played since the first-leg win over Bayern on 28 April, but was pictured in training on Tuesday in the build-up to Saturday's Champions League final against Arsenal.

Manchester United defender Noussair Mazraoui, Fulham defender Issa Diop, Crystal Palace defender Chadi Riad, Sunderland winger Chemsdine Talbi and Real Madrid's Brahim Diaz are among the other players selected.

Former West Ham defender Nayef Aguerd, Sofyan Amrabat, formerly of Manchester United, and ex-Leicester midfielder Bilal El Khannouss are also included.

Former Chelsea winger Hakim Ziyech has been left out.

Morocco are currently eighth in the Fifa rankings and reached the semi-finals of the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, losing to France.

They were controversially declared winners of last year's Africa Cup of Nations after Senegal had their victory overturned for their walk-off during the final.

Morocco are in Group C with Scotland, Brazil and Haiti. They meet Steve Clarke's side on 19 June.
