Mohamed Sahli: candidate to revive the Gabon Panthers

After the Gabon Panthers crashed out of AFCON 2025, eliminated in the group stage, FEGAFOOT is on the hunt for a new head coach. In this context, Tunisian coach Mohamed Sahli has officially thrown his hat into the ring for the position of National A Team Head Coach.

Solid experience in Europe and Africa

Holder of a UEFA Pro License, Mohamed Sahli brings significant international experience to the table. He has coached in the Austrian Bundesliga with Wolfsberger AC, participating in the UEFA Europa League, as well as in North Africa with Club Sportif Monastirien and Club Africain de Tunis.

He has also played a role in nurturing young talent in Austria, contributing to the development of players who are now global stars such as Erling Haaland, Sadio Mané, and Dominik Szoboszlai.

In his application, the 48-year-old coach highlights a modern approach:

• Rigorous performance analysis;
• Discipline and collective cohesion;
• Leadership based on clarity and trust.

He emphasizes his belief that Gabon has tremendous potential, capable of shining on both the African and international stage if the team is properly structured. Fully aware of the expectations of FEGAFOOT and the Gabonese people, Mohamed Sahli says he is ready to put his experience at the service of the Panthers. This is definitely a case to watch, especially as the authorities must make the right call to restore hope to the fans after a challenging year for Gabonese football.
