Tunisia have approached four French-based coaches as possible replacements for Roger Lemerre, whose contract with the national team runs out in June.
The Tunisia Football Federation said on Friday it had approached former French internationals Luis Fernandez and Jean Tigana, the former French national team assistant coach Guy Stephan and Vahid Halilhodzic, who was a Yugoslav international.
Officials said all four had expressed interest in the position which will become vacant after last month's decision not to renew Lemerre's contract when it expires in June.
Lemerre, 66, took over as Tunisia coach in 2002. Under his guidance, the north Africans won the 2004 CAF Africa Cup of Nations on home soil and qualified for Germany 2006 but they were eliminated at the quarter-final stage of this year's Cup of Nations in Ghana
