Now, the 51-year-old's coaching staff at his new club has also been revealed: surprisingly, it includes an Austrian.

Previously managed WAC
The 48-year-old with Tunisian roots also previously worked at AS Monastir (Tunisia), but has also had a spell on the touchline for Wolfsberger AC: the former assistant coach of the Lavanttal outfit took charge of the club for six matches as interim coach during the 2019/20 season.
In addition, Sahli has worked within the ÖFB youth setup, serving among other roles as assistant coach to Martin Scherb and Peter Schöttel. He also spent several years working at the Red Bull Academy (2009–2015).
