If the Corona crisis does not disrupt the international basketball games as well, the Israeli team will take off in about three weeks to Valencia, where it will stay in the bubble for eight days and hold two games in the first house of the 2022 European Championship qualifiers.
Oded Katash's team One more victory to practically secure her place in the championship, she will fly to Spain in 20 days, and five more days later will face the local team.
Five days later, the blue-and-whites will play against Poland and return to Israel the next day.
According to FIBA guidelines, the players of the team and the professional team will undergo two corona tests in the days before the flight to Spain and depending on the results, the 15 players who will board the flight will be determined. "Israel Today" brings you the current picture of the squad
.
Gal Makal returned to training yesterday after suffering a small tear in his muscle and missed Malaga's last games.
If he does not feel new pains, he is likely to be a key screw in the squad.
The main question mark was around Jake Cohen, who, as I recall, left Israel with slightly sour feelings and expressed complaints about the conduct of the authorities in Israel, but an Oberduiro player recently sent messages to the team that if nothing special happens he intends to come to Valencia.

TJ Klein, with whom the team members are, and especially Katsch, in constant contact, should also be on the squad after returning from a groin injury and has already played in the last games of the Italian Brescia.
If in the end Klein does not come, the one who is expected to grab the citizen's box is Ben Carter, who has excelled at Hapoel Eilat in recent months.
Grublin player Itai Segev, who is suffering from a foot injury, will be out of action until December and will not be available for the professional team.
Maccabi Tel Aviv.
As we wrote a few weeks ago, in the current window there will be no players from the champion team. Except for injuries suffered by almost all the main Israeli players of the team - Yuval Sussman, John Dibertolumio and Omri Caspi - Against Milan and therefore also the qualified players of Yannis Sapropoulos will not reach the squad.

Young people.
The professional committee of the union and the professional team of the team intend to continue the rejuvenation process, and it is possible that this time too, young and talented players will join the squad.
First of all it's Yam Madar (if he decides to withdraw his name from the draft at the last minute), who as of a few weeks ago still has not talked to Katsch about the incident that happened between them in the game in Romania (already had time to apologize over the pages of this newspaper). In the faculty.
Noam Dovrat from Maccabi Rishon Lezion is also included in the broad roster, but it is still unclear his chances of being included in the final list.
