Team Tunisia

The striker who wore his club number — as a national nickname ⚽️🇹🇳

Tunisia’s 1998 star Zoubeir Baya was nicknamed “10” by fans not just for playmaking — his club number stuck as a national shorthand that followed him into World Cup lore.

Nickname came from his creative No.10 role at club and country.
Baya played for Tunisia at France 1998 as a key midfield creator.

When your club shirt becomes your national brand — Baya made '10' sound like a person, not a number.

FIFA squad lists & contemporary press FIFA France 1998 squad lists confirm Zoubeir Baya in Tunisia’s squad; contemporary match reports and player profiles (1997–1999) note his No.10 role and fan usage of the '10' nickname in Tunisian media.
