Club sportif sfaxien has chosen Mohamed Kouki to replace Nabil Kouki at the helm of its team after considering several candidates. Sporting director Tarek Salem left his post on the day of the decision, made before the club’s trip to Ivory Coast for a first-leg match, La Presse reports.

Tunisian football club Club sportif sfaxien has brought Mohamed Kouki back to coach its team after Nabil Kouki’s departure. The decision was made by CSS official Mehdi Frikha despite opposition from the club’s sporting director, Tarek Salem, La Presse reports.
