Tunisia name World Cup squad

Tunisia have named Wahbi Khazri on their final 23-man squad for the World Cup despite his struggle to recover from a thigh injury.

Khazri has been out of action since April and missed both of Tunisia’s World Cup warm-ups this month. But still, the Sunderland loanee, currently playing for Rennes in Ligue 1, remains an integral part of Tunisia boss Nabil Maaloul’s plans in Russia.

Defenders: Rami Bedoui (Etoile du Sahel), Yohan Benalouane (Leicester City), Syam Ben Youssef (Kasimpasa), Dylan Bronn (Gent), Oussama Haddadi (Dijon), Ali Maaloul (Al Ahly), Yassine Meriah (CS Sfaxien), Hamdi Nagguez (Zamalek)

Midfielders: Anice Badri (Esperance), Mohamed Amine Ben Amor (Al Ahli Riyadh), Ghaylene Chaalali (Esperance), Ahmed Khalil (Club Africain), Saifeddine Khaoui (Troyes), Ferjani Sassi (Al Nasr), Ellyes Skhiri (Montpellier), Naim Sliti (Dijon), Bassem Srarfi (Nice)
