Tunisia is going through a turbulent period. After two disappointing results in the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers, internal tensions have erupted.

Attacker Elias Achouri has left the group, in conflict with coach Mouine Chaâbani. This situation has led to the cancellation of the planned friendly match against Mali.

The exact reasons for Achouri's departure have not been detailed, but this clash has disrupted the preparation of the Eagles of Carthage.

The Tunisian federation will have to manage this crisis before the next fixture.
