(Reuters) - Tunisia's Wahbi Khazri knows a thing or two about the big-name players that await him in the group stages of the World Cup in Russia, and he will want to show that he deserves his place in the spotlight just as much as them.

Khazri, unlike most members of the North African squad, has played in the English Premier League. As a striker for Sunderland for two seasons he rubbed shoulders with players such as England's Harry Kane and Belgium's Vincent Kompany.
