After the goalkeeper wanted to leave for MLS in Haifa, a replacement had already been marked. There was a significant breakthrough between the sides and Cohen sat down for negotiations.

If he stays, Kioff will be the second goalkeeper. Roy Mashpati is interested in being the first goalkeeper and is in demand in quite a few teams in the Premier League. By the way, if Cohen does extend his contract by two years, he could become the goalkeeper of the Israeli national team. If negotiations with Cohen fail and he leaves, Haifa will turn to Nathan Baxter.
