Tunisia have included Wahbi Khazri, who has battled to overcome a thigh injury over the last month, and fit-again midfielder Mohamed Amine Ben Amor in their final 23-man squad for the World Cup.
Khazri has not played since being injured for Stade Rennes in April, missing Tunisia’s two warm-up matches this week against Portugal and Turkey. He has been training apart from the rest of the squad at their Swiss training camp this week.
Ben Amor suffered a knee injury playing for Tunisia in March and though the extent of his recovery had been in doubt he proved his fitness over the last week.
Tunisia, who are training in Lausanne, play their last warm-up friendly against Spain in Krasnodar next Saturday before their first Group G game against England in Volgograd on June 18.
Tunisia play England June 18, Belgium June 23 and Panama June 28.
