Achraf Hakimi’s lawyer Fanny Collin, has now denied an allegation of rape against the footballer saying the claims are "false".

Collin also confirmed the Paris Saint-Germain wing-back is "making himself available to the authorities" after an investigation was opened on  Monday.

 "The accusations are false. He is calm and is making himself available to the authorities.", Collins was quoted to have said as per Le Parisien.

A report from Le Parisien details how the alleged victim reported the incident at a police station on Sunday evening but did not want to press charges against the footballer.

The woman also said there was attempted penetration from the PSG star despite her protests again.

She finally managed to free herself from the footballer by pushing him away with her foot.

 And when she was released, she then allegedly sent a text message to a friend who came to pick her up. 

Reports say the incident occurred on Sunday, February 26, and  according to social media, he was alone in Paris, whilst his wife and two children were on holiday in Dubai.

As of now, no charges have been filed against Achraf Hakimi and PSG have also not yet released an official statement on the matter.
