CAN Morocco 2025: Achraf Hakimi sets out his ambition
Achraf Hakimi After the Ballon d'Or and the Champions League, Achraf Hakimi didn't miss the chance to talk about Morocco and the upcoming AFCON in his interview with Canal +. During his interview with Canal+, Achraf Hakimi also spoke about his relationship with Morocco. The player notably highlighted his love for his country. "Morocco called me when I was at the Real Madrid academy, it's the country of my parents. I try to attend every call-up, to always be ready, whenever the national team needs me. Right now, I think I'm the third or fourth most-capped player. Entering the history books as one of the players with the most appearances for Morocco means a lot to me, but there are still many matches ahead, and we're going to stay ready for all of them. It's a dream moment. It's the first time Morocco will host AFCON. It's going to be incredible. My goal is also to achieve great things with Morocco. We have the goal of winning this AFCON. It's a pressure we'll have to handle well, but we need to take responsibility for it." the European champion revealed. Another topic: his foundation. "It's something we started three or four years ago. It was a goal I had in mind. I wanted to give young people in Morocco the chance for a better life. I know where I come from. I'll never forget my roots. It's still tough to make it today. I know that conditions in Morocco aren't the best, especially for the youth. We're trying to make it easier for young people to achieve their dreams through education and sport. We're working to build a lot, to give them the best possible conditions so they can fulfill their dreams." Hakimi said.

Steelers countdown to kickoff — No. 28: a history of the number and who wore it best
The Steelers countdown to kickoff is here — and we're at 28 days until Pittsburgh faces off against the New York Jets at MetLife Stadium. In the spirit of the countdown, we're taking a look at the history of No. 28 and the players who wore it best. Current Steelers No. 28 wearer: S Miles Killebrew One of the best special teams contributors in the NFL, Killebrew is the current Steelers wearer of No. 28. Signing with Pittsburgh as a free agent in 2021, Killebrew has earned two Pro Bowl nominations and one First-Team All-Pro selection over the past two seasons — the heart and soul of the Steelers special teams unit, who's looking to make an even bigger splash in 2025. Last five Steelers to wear No. 28: Best No. 28 in Steelers history: DB Clendon Thomas DB Clendon Thomas is the best Steeler to ever wear No. 28. A standout collegiate athlete known for his ability to play a multitude of positions, Thomas was selected by the Los Angeles Rams with the 19th overall pick in the second round of the 1958 NFL Draft. He was traded to the Steelers in 1962 — where he earned one Pro Bowl nomination and three Second-Team All-Pro selections during his stellar Pittsburgh tenure. From 1962 to 1968, Thomas produced 23 interceptions for the Black and Gold — the thirteenth-most by a Steeler all time. His contributions to the Steel City brand of football earned him a spot on the Pittsburgh Steelers Legends Team — leaving no doubt that he was the best to ever wear No. 28.
