FIFA WC 2026: Renard Named Tunisia Coach After Lamouchi Dismissal
The Tunisian Football Federation: Tunisia appointed Herve Renard as head coach through the end of the 2026 FIFA World Cup on Tuesday, following the dismissal of Sabri Lamouchi after a disappointing start to the tournament, in which they lost the opener to Sweden 5-1 on Monday (IST).
Lamouchi's departure makes him the first manager in World Cup history to be sacked after just one game. "The Tunisian Football Federation announces the termination of its contractual relationship with Head Coach Sabri Lamouchi by mutual agreement and wishes him every success in his future professional endeavours," the Tunisian Football Federation wrote in an Instagram post.
In a separate post, the federation said that they have appointed Renard as head coach until the end of the 2026 World Cup. He will begin his role immediately under the existing financial terms, with discussions on a longer-term contract to take place after the tournament based on the team's performance and sporting objectives.
