Paris Saint-Germain have made a big decision regarding Achraf Hakimi after he was charged with rape.
In February, the Morocco star was accused of sexually assaulting a woman at his home in Paris.

The Ligue 1 log leaders later released a statement insisting they are supporting the footballer.
However, French authorities confirmed last Friday that they had charged the player with rape.
Following the official charging, it was suggested that PSG might suspend the fullback until the investigation into the matter reached a conclusion, with the player having not played for the team since the allegations first came out.
Les Parisiens, though, have announced their official squad for the second leg of their UEFA Champions League round of 16 clash against Bayern Munich on Wednesday, and have decided to include Hakimi in the selection.

The club has not indicated whether or not the Moroccan will start the tie, which PSG are currently losing 1-0, although he was pictured in first-team training on Monday.

According to French law, a footballer is permitted to play outside of the country despite being under investigation, although Hakimi remains forbidden from making contact with the accuser.
