Norwich City midfielder Anis Ben Slimane says he has previously turned down international duty due to prioritising fitness for his club.

The Tunisia international has struggled with injury for both the Canaries and previous club Sheffield United, last featuring for Tunisia in January 2024.

But he is eager to help his country reach the World Cup during their upcoming qualifiers in March, having already featured in the competition in 2022.

"I have been selected for other international camps but unfortunately, with the injuries, I haven't felt like it was the right moment to be with the national team when I've not been 100% for the club.
