Yassine Chikhaoui is a highly rated Tunisian footballer for FC Zurich in Switzerland. Chikhaoui is known as Chirne in all PES games because of licensing issues. For Tunisia he is usually in the first team either played on the wing or as support for Francileudo dos Santos such is his versatility. He is arguably Tunisia's key player.

PES 2009

In real life he is known for his height and scoring ability which has been reflected in PES 2009. He also possesses great speed and balance which allows him to burst through opposition defences with ease when approaching his steep Master League peak, the balance also allows him to outmuscle other players when off the ball. His Master League curve peaks at 90 with rapid development and once he has reached his peak he becomes one of the best players in the game. Furthermore, his height (1.89m) makes him a threat in the air both in build up play and with scoring headers and volleys. One weakness for Chikhaoui is his lack of agility in comparison to his speed which makes it more difficult for him to turn effectively.

PES 2010

Chikhaoui was controversially axed from PES 2010 after being left out of the Tunisia squad.

Cult hero

Chikhaoui is still a young player and he has a bright future in PES where he has already gained a cult hero status alongside previous cult heroes Jeremy Mathieu, Gervinho, Alexander Baumjohann and Park Chu Young.
