CA Bizertin has parted company with head coach Sami Gafsi following a disappointing two-month spell in charge. The decision, reported by Tunisian media outlet Mosaique FM on Sunday, November 24, comes after a string of underwhelming performances that have left the club struggling near the bottom of the league table.
Appointed on September 18 as the successor to Imed Ben Younes, the 44-year-old coach departs following a weekend loss to Gabès (2-1), a result that appears to have been the final straw for the club’s management.
A Worrying Start for the Club
Under Gafsi’s leadership, CA Bizertin managed to collect only four points in the league, leaving the team in a precarious 14th position.
The club’s inability to secure consistent results created mounting pressure on the coach, culminating in his dismissal.
The early termination of Gafsi’s tenure reflects the urgency felt by CA Bizertin to reverse their fortunes and climb out of the relegation zone.
Interim Management Appointed
In the wake of Gafsi’s departure, the club has appointed technical director Najmeddine Oumaya to oversee the team on an interim basis.
Oumaya will be supported by assistant coach Ali Machani as the club seeks a long-term solution for its managerial position.
The leadership change is seen as a critical step in stabilizing the team and fostering improved performances in upcoming fixtures.
A Challenging Path Ahead
CA Bizertin’s current position in the league standings underscores the challenges facing the team.
With fans growing increasingly anxious over the club’s trajectory, the pressure is now on the interim management to deliver results and restore confidence.
The club’s decision to act swiftly signals a commitment to turning around their season, but the search for a new head coach remains a pressing priority.
As the team looks to recover from this rocky start, the spotlight will be on the board to make a decisive and impactful appointment.
CA Bizertin’s next fixtures will prove pivotal as they aim to rebuild momentum and climb the table, with the hope that a fresh managerial approach can provide the spark needed for a turnaround.

L’attaquant guinéen a délivré les siens ce samedi pour offrir une envolée absolument généreuse. Mohamed Camara “Figo” a marqué le but de la victoire de l’Avenir Sportif de Gabès contre CA Bizertin. Il s’agit du premier but devant son public. Bravo à lui ! 👏.#medsesay pic.twitter.com/l3v1CPD4qr
