L'Espérance Sportive de Tunis (EST) affiche des difficultés défensives persistantes depuis la période de préparation, notamment lors de la rencontre amicale contre l'Avenir Sportif de La Marsa. Les départs de Yassine Meriah, Mohamed Amine Tougaï et Mohamed Amine Ben Hmida ont laissé un vide important dans l'équipe, qui n'a pas été comblé. Lors du match contre la Jeunesse Sportive d'El Omrane, le coach Laurentiu Reghecampf a aligné deux joueurs du milieu de terrain sur les flancs, permettant ainsi aux Omraniens de profiter des espaces et de mener leurs contres.
despite changes made by Reghecampf, the team's performance on the pitch of the Zouiten stadium was poor. The staff's insistence on playing Youcef Belaïli, who was far from his best form, did not help the situation. The team lacked offensive solutions and the staff's choices were inappropriate. Reghecampf acknowledged that there is a real problem with the defense and that solutions must be found quickly. After two matches, the EST is at the bottom of the defensive rankings.
For the next match against AS Marsa, Reghecampf will be without Mohamed Ben Ali, who is suspended, and must find a replacement, either Mohamed Dräger or Elyès Bouzaiene. In order to address the defensive issues, the club is searching for an axial defender to replace Mohamed Amine Tougaï. The search has led to the Nigerian defender James Ajako of the Renaissance Club Athlétique de Zemamra in Morocco. Ajako, aged 23, can play both centrally and on the left side of defense. His transfer formalities are expected to be completed today or tomorrow.
