Tunisia Begin Training Camp
The Carthage Eagles have kicked off preparations for the upcoming African Cup of Nations.
The first two underwent scans to determine the extent of their knocks and the team’s medical staff will assess the results tomorrow to make a decision on whether or not each will be able to compete in Angola.
Meanwhile, Benzarti made it clear during his press conference that any players who were not physically fit enough to partake in the tournament could be replaced any time before he has to finalize his roster list.
“I never finalized the list. Some of our players still have club matches in Europe and if any get injured we could make changes. Plus the tournament doesn’t start for us until the 13th and if any player gets hurt before then and won’t be ready to play then his health is more important and we’ll replace him,” he explained while speaking to Mosaique FM.
The coach also indicated that the Carthage Eagles would face Gambia upon their return from their Abu Dhabi based training camp which begins on December 31st and runs till the 7th of January.
