Tunisia coach Hervé Renard open to staying on with national team after a chaotic World Cup stint

KANSAS, USA: Tunisia coach Hervé Renard is open to the possibility of leading the African nation’s program beyond the end of the World Cup. The 57-year-old Frenchman had been watching the tournament from Senegal when Tunisia abruptly fired their coach, Sabri Lamouchi, following a 5-1 loss to Sweden. With the team in chaos, Renard was asked to lead the Eagles of Carthage the rest of the way, beginning with a 4-0 loss to Japan last week and concluding with Thursday night’s game against the Netherlands. “I’m open to any discussion. I’m ready to, you know, listen to the project,” Renard said Wednesday, “but this is not what I’m here for.” The losses to Sweden and Japan mean Tunisia already have been eliminated from the knockout stage.
