Tunisia coach Sabri Lamouchi’s job is in the balance as federation chiefs are holding talks following the humiliating 5-1 defeat by Sweden in their opening World Cup match, a source told AFP Monday.
Lamouchi has only been in charge since January and could be replaced by Mondher Kebaier, who coached the national side from 2019 to 2022.
Kebaier is with the Tunisian World Cup delegation which is based in Monterrey, Mexico.
“Discussions are underway between members of the federation,” the source told AFP on condition of anonymity.
