Yan Valery

Should be active in World Cup

Valery has received his first World Cup call-up and is expected to appear at right-back in upcoming action.

Analysis: Valery has emerged as his nation's favored right-back lately, though he might sometimes rotate with Adem Arous. The wide player adds an interesting dimension to Tunisia's back line thanks to his ability to contribute on both ends of the pitch. The defender is capable of operating as a right-back, wing-back or even in a more advanced wide role when needed, giving the team various tactical alternatives. His athleticism allows him to cover significant ground and could make him one of Tunisia's most active players in terms of crosses, ball recovery and duels won. He has assisted once over 13 international matches since 2025. Nevertheless, his skills will be tested by solid opposition throughout the competition.
