Sabri Lamouchi’s future as head coach of Tunisia is in jeopardy following a disappointing start to the 2026 FIFA World Cup. In their Group F opener, Tunisia suffered a significant 5–1 defeat against Sweden, raising serious concerns among fans and officials alike.
The heavy loss has prompted the Tunisian Football Federation to convene an emergency meeting to assess the team’s situation. Local media reports indicate that discussions are ongoing regarding potential coaching changes, as the federation evaluates its next steps.
Among the options being considered is veteran forward Wahbi Khazri, who is being discussed as a possible interim coach if the federation opts for a swift management change ahead of Tunisia’s crucial second group match against Japan.
