The Tunisian striker Wahbi Khazri announced his retirement from international soccer after the national team was eliminated in the group stage of World Cup in Qatar.
Khazri scored to give Tunisia a 1-0 victory over France on Wednesday, joining Saudi duo Salem Al-Dawsari and Sami Al-Jaber as the all-time Arab World Cup scorers with three goals each.
“After the game in Tunisia, and in a meeting with all the players and the coaching and administrative staff, I told everyone that this moment is right, I thanked everyone and wished them success,” Khazri said on Bein Sports French. “I am proud of what I have given my country over the years and I believe that the future of this generation is bright,” added the 31-year-old Montpellier forward.
