Anis Khedher: Tunisian midfielder returns home to join JS Kairouan on free transfer

Tunisian midfielder Anis Khedher has joined JS Kairouan on a free transfer from Libyan side Al-Tersana. The 34-year-old central midfielder returns to his home country as he completes a move that strengthens the Kairouan club’s options in the middle of the pitch.

Khedher arrives at JS Kairouan without a transfer fee changing hands, following his spell with Al-Tersana in Libya. The deal sees the experienced Tunisian switch back into domestic football, where his know-how and positional discipline in central midfield are expected to add stability and depth to the squad.

Primarily operating in central midfield, Khedher brings a wealth of experience built across his professional career. At 34, he is one of the more seasoned additions to JS Kairouan’s ranks, offering a profile suited to organising play and providing structure between defence and attack.

The move also marks a notable change in direction for the player after his time competing in Libyan football with Al-Tersana. His return to a Tunisian club environment underlines JS Kairouan’s intention to rely on proven, battle-hardened players in key areas of the pitch.

Khedher’s current estimated market value stands at around €75,000, underlining his status as a low-cost but experienced acquisition for JS Kairouan. The Tunisian club have confirmed that all formalities are complete, with Khedher now officially registered as a JS Kairouan player following his free transfer from Al-Tersana.
