Another blow to Betar Jerusalem.
Offensive player Niv Zrihan, who was injured during the training match on Friday in which the Jerusalemites defeated Ness Ziona 0: 2, was diagnosed after an MRI examination with a tear in the lateral ligament.
The player will begin the rehabilitation process in the coming days and will be absent from the pitches for a period of two to three months.
Zarihan joins the injured list alongside stopper Joshua Mahias, who underwent surgery after breaking his elbow in Venezuela's game against Brazil and may return only in January 2022, and defender Amit Cohen, who is expected to undergo knee surgery due to a meniscus injury and may return to the pitches in February.
In the midst of the great upheaval that the club has been going through in recent days with the arrest of Moshe Hogg, Betar Jerusalem will host Hapoel Hadera on Saturday (19:50).
