The results of the corona tests conducted yesterday by the Bnei Sakhnin players arrived, and it was found that defender Muhammad Othman is also positive about the virus.
The test performed by Ataa Jaber went borderline and he will pass another one.
Jaber in any case cannot play on Saturday against Maccabi Haifa due to suspension.
At this stage, eight players from the squad are disabled: Biram Kiel, Ihab Ghanaim, Osama Khalaila, Ali Othman, Muhammad Khalaila, Nigel Hasselbaink and, as mentioned, Muhammad Othman.
"We currently have 14-15 players in training today, hoping there will be no more contagions until Saturday's game," the club said, adding: "There is no sporting value to the game, it is also impossible to bring up youth players because they are not active, closed them due to the corona."
Sakhnin may request another inspection on Friday, so that if a situation arises and more players become infected, the Ministry of Health will have no choice but to stop the team's activities and postpone the game against Maccabi Haifa.
