Sellimi recalled for Tunisia

Sellimi missed Tunisia's 0-0 draws with S Korea and Norway

New Tunisia coaches Khamies Labidi and Ammar Souayah have recalled Freiburg striker Adel Sellimi in the hope of ending the Carthage Eagle's long-running goal drought.

Sellimi was out of favour under previous boss Henri Michel after he refused to travel to Mali for the African Nations Cup.

But the team has not scored since before that competition, and Sellimi might have a good chance of changing this against Slovenia.

There are six other Europe-based players in the joint coaches' squad.

Squad:

Goalkeepers: El Ouaer (Esperance), Bejaoui (CA Bizertin), Ahmed Jaouachi (US Monastir)

Defenders: Clayton (Esperance), Jaballah (CS Sfaxien), Thabet (Esperance), Badra (Esperance), Hatem Trabelsi (Ajax, Netherlands), Jaidi (Esperance), Marzouki (Club Africain), Anis Ayari (Stade Tunisien), Mkadmi (Etoile), Mkacher (Etoile)

Midfielders: Souayah (Esperance), Bouazizi (Bursaspor, Turkey), Baya (Besiktas, Turkey), Gabsi (Genoa, Italy), Ben Achour (Martigues, France), Ben Abdelkadher (CS Hammam), Hammi (CS Sfaxien), Ouertani (Stade Tunisien), Ben Chouikha (CS Hammam)

Strikers: Jelassi (Club Africain), Sellimi (Freiburg, Germany), Ben Younes (CS Sfaxien), Jaziri (Etoile), Mhedhbi (Genoa)
