Karlsruher SC talent Louey Ben Farhat is planning to make a comeback after his long injury. The 19-year-old aims to secure a spot in the 2026 World Cup.

What happened?

Ben Farhat and the KSC are preparing for the second half of the season in the winter training camp in Estepona, Spain. Due to a metatarsal fracture, the striker has not played for the Baden-based second-tier club since August.

Why it matters

The offensive player wants to recommend himself for a place in Tunisia's World Cup squad after his injury. To talk about the tournament in the USA, Canada, and Mexico in the summer, he would have to play a few games first.

What's next?

Ben Farhat could make his comeback in the test against Czech champion Slavia Prague on Saturday. The KSC will start the second half of the season on January 17 against Preußen Münster. | Date | Opponent | Location | | --- | --- | --- | | January 17 | Preußen Münster | Münster |

Withdrawal from Africa Cup

The Karlsruher storm jewel was actually already scheduled for the current Africa Cup in Morocco and was supposed to make his debut for Tunisia's A-national team. After an exchange between the club, association, and player, coach Sami Trabelsi waived the nomination of the native Waiblinger.
