Afcon 2019: The coach will decide if I can start against Madagascar - Tunisia's Khazri

Tunisia striker Wahbi Khazri has stated he is unsure of how he will be deployed by coach Alain Giresse in Thursday’s quarter-final tie at the Africa Cup of Nations (Afcon) against Madagascar.

Khazri suffered a thigh injury in the last group game against Mauritania and required extra rest to be able to make an appearance in Monday’s Round of 16 tie against Ghana.

While Khazri feels he is back to full fitness, he admits the final call on whether he would start against surprise package Madagascar rests solely on the Tunisia coach.
