The Reds have taken another step towards bringing the midfielder back to Israel. Maccabi Haifa may also enter the picture in light of the possible departure of Omer Atzili.

There was a gap of close to 200,100 euros between the sides, but the gap has narrowed to below 100,000 euros. Hapoel Tel Aviv and AEL Larnaca are in talks over the release of the midfielder. The deal is expected to be completed in the next few days.
