The interim coach of Maccabi Tel Aviv, Barak Yitzhaki, who marched the team to a victory over KS, will probably also stand on the lines in the Yellows' upcoming game on Thursday against Helsinki, in the home stage of the Conference League.
Yitzhaki, along with the owner's representative, Jack Angelidis, who left the country last week, are working to find a new coach as soon as possible.
A source close to the heads of Maccabi Tel Aviv claimed that ex-Vladan Ivic, who was the preferred candidate to replace Patrick van Leven, might step down and said: "Ivica does not want to return."
Maccabi are ready to wait for Ivica for a few more days, but they also understand that the chances of his return to a second term are diminished and at this stage they have two other candidates who are in the sights.
It is possible that Angelidis will meet in person with one of the coaches.
"We had a catastrophic season opener and we are still only 4 points away from Maccabi Haifa," said Maccabi Tel Aviv. You will still surprise everyone. "

No matter who scores we have to To return to a team that the other teams will be afraid of us and to improve the defensive part of the whole team and the victories will come with it. "
