Tunisia announces 26-man squad for 2022 FIFA World Cup

This will be the nation's second involvement in the prestigious tournament

Tunisia have officially named their players who will be ready to make the best of this competition as we approach the end of the squad announcement process for each team. Many young players have made Tunisia's 26-man roster.

This will be their second World Cup involvement, following their debut in 2018. This indicates how far they've come as a small country making back-to-back World Cup appearances.

Tunisia are part of Group D, which includes France, Australia, and Denmark. The squad consists of many well-known names. Hannibal Mejbri, a 19-year-old Birmingham loanee at Manchester United, has been nominated, as have Ligue 1 Khazri of Montpellier, Montassar Talbi of FC Lorient, and Ali Abdi of Ligue 2 Caen.

Tunisia will get the better of the rest and rise above the odds in the World Cup. On November 22, they will play their first match of the competition against Denmark.
