Paris Saint Germain right-back Achraf Hakimi was booed during their Champions League match against the Israeli club Maccabi Haifa.
The 23-year-old right-back came off the bench to replace Nordi Mukiele in the 83rd minute and was jeered by the home fans as he has been a vocal advocate of Palestinian rights.
The Moroccan international Hakimi touched his ear in reply to loud boos by the home fans.
Hakimi is an avid supporter of the Palestinian cause and showcased his support on Twitter last year when residents of the Sheikh Jarrah neighbourhood were evicted by the Israeli government.
It is not the first time Hakimi has been targeted by supporters as he was also booed in Tel Aviv earlier this year when PSG faced FC Nantes for the Trophee des Champions.
