Sadok Sassi (Arabic: الصادق ساسي), nicknamed "Attouga" (born 15 November 1945 in Tunis)[1] is a former Tunisian footballer. He was a goalkeeper and played for Club Africain and the Tunisian national team.[2]
He played both matches for the Tunisian national team at the 1963 African Cup of Nations.[3]
In a sixteen-years career, Sassi earned an impressive five league titles, eight cups, including three for Tunisia and the Maghreb. In 1972, he was goalkeeper for the African team at the mini-World Cup, hosted by Brazil.[1]
The national team's undisputed first-choice goalkeeper for many years, he missed Tunisia's first World Cup appearance in 1978 through injury,[4] and was replaced by Mokhtar Naili. Sassi earned a total of 87 international caps.[5] He was awarded the African Football’s Silver Order of Merit by CAF.
