African Kings Esperance Eyeing Club World Cup

After conquering the continent, North African giants Esperance de Tunis now have plans of becoming the World’s best club.

Under the tutelage of gaffer Mouine Chaabani, Esperance left the shores of Tunis today for United Arab Emirates.

Chaabani has summoned 23 players for the assignment about a month before they slug it out with Morocco’s Raja Casablanca for the Confederation of African Football Super Cup slated for February in Qatar.

The African champions face the winner between hosts team Al Ain and Wellington of New Zealand 15 December.

ES reached the Club World Cup after discarding Egyptian domestic champions Al Ahly Sporting Club in the second-leg of the Total Caf Champions League final in a drama-packed episode after losing the first meeting in Cairo.
