French coach Hervé Renard is set to take charge of Tunisia after the country’s football federation parted ways with coach Sabri Lamouchi following the team’s 5-1 defeat to Sweden at the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
The Tunisian Football Federation announced on Monday that it had reached an agreement with the 56-year-old to lead the Carthage Eagles until the end of the World Cup.
“The president of the Tunisian Football Federation, Moez Nassari, announced that an official agreement had been reached with French coach Hervé Renard for him to take charge of the national football team until the end of the 2026 World Cup,” Tunisian public broadcaster Télévision Tunisienne reported.
Renard arrives with a wealth of experience in African football and on the global stage.
