'Tunisian players do not like to suffer very much' - Ex-Southampton defender Jaidi

Former Southampton defender Radhi Jaidi has asserted that "Tunisian players do not like to suffer very much", citing it as a reason why some of the best players in the North African nation can't be exported to Europe.
