Mejbri was capped at Under-17 and Under-18 level by France. Even if he plays for Tunisia next month he could still technically switch back to France as he will not have played in a competitive international.

The Tunisia football Twitter account wrote: "Hannibal Mejbri, Omar Rekik and Ali Youssef are called up for the first time with the national team!"
