Anis Ben Slimane #25

Profile

A midfield talent unlike any other in the squad, there is a widespread feeling that Ben Slimane has never truly been used to his full potential with the national team. Having represented Denmark at Under-19 level before playing for Tunisia at the 2022 World Cup, the Copenhagen-born playmaker is still waiting for that one match to fully showcase his immense talent. Absent from the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations squad, he is coming off an excellent season with Norwich despite injury setbacks: 26 matches, five goals, and six assists. The Canaries decided to make his loan move from Sheffield United permanent in January. Back in the fold internationally, Ben Slimane has more than enough in his locker to earn a place in the 26-man squad.
