The axe has fallen. After weeks of poor performances in the Ligue 1 championship, Portuguese coach Miguel Cardoso has been sacked by Esperance de Tunis, ending a tenure that, while brilliant at times, ultimately collided with the pressures of the pitch and intense media scrutiny.

Just a short while ago, the signs were positive. Reigning Tunisian champions, CAF Champions League finalists in 2024, and qualified for the 2025 Club World Cup in the United States, Miguel Cardoso's nine-month record was undeniably positive. These successes were even rewarded with a contract extension until 2026, proving that the club's management believed in his long-term project. But in football, dynamics can change quickly. Recent setbacks in Ligue 1 and relentless external pressure have taken their toll on this relationship of trust.

Cardoso's dismissal, announced today, ends a short but emotionally charged adventure. In thanking him, the club also ended the collaboration with his entire technical staff. To replace him, Esperance de Tunis has called upon a familiar face: Skander Kasri. The latter will take over on an interim basis while the board of directors decides on the identity of the future coach who will lead the team to new successes.

This choice is a turning point for Esperance, which is about to enter a crucial phase of the season. While the results in Ligue 1 have tipped the balance against Cardoso, his accomplishments deserve to be highlighted. He has managed to breathe new competitive life into a team seeking to regain its former glory. His professionalism and passion have marked the players and supporters, who will remember him as a dedicated leader.

The club would like to warmly thank Miguel Cardoso and his staff for their unwavering dedication and for the unforgettable moments experienced under their leadership, aware that, despite recent turbulence, the shared history between the Portuguese coach and Esperance will leave a lasting impression.
