Étoile du Sahel Parts Ways with Coach Lassaad Dridi
Tunisian football club Étoile du Sahel has announced that it has parted ways with its first team coach, Lassaad Dridi, effective immediately.

According to a statement released on the club's official website, Mohamed Ali Nafkha has been appointed to take the reins of the team for its upcoming match, scheduled to take place later this week.
