Esperance Sportive de Tunis experienced a significant transformation day as they regained the top position in the local league following a victory over the Tunisian stadium. This comes alongside the official announcement of their new coach, Patrice Beaumelle, who takes over from Maher Kanzari after the team's disappointing performances, including a loss to Stade Malien in the African Champions League.

The club's management introduced Beaumelle, known for his extensive experience in Africa, having previously coached national teams like Ivory Coast, Zambia, and Angola, and assisting Hervé Renard historically. The contract solidifies Beaumelle's position at the club until June 2027, indicating a long-term commitment to reshaping the team's fortunes.

This decisive day for Esperance represents not only a crucial tactical change with the coaching staff but also reflects their ambition to reclaim their dominance in Tunisian football. While they are back in the forefront domestically, their sights are set on competing successfully in the African Champions League under the new leadership.
