Eran Zehavi, Eli Desa and also Nico Olsk make the Dutch league attractive to the Israeli spectator.
But there is another player with an Israeli connection, who makes two teams in our Premier League feel a huge miss: Yorgos Yakumakis.
The Greek striker has almost arrived in Israel twice before.
In December 2018, advanced negotiations were conducted between Maccabi Tel Aviv and AEK Athens, Yakumakis' team at the time.
A summary of principle was even reached regarding the loan deal, after Schuldan Ivitch pressed to land the striker in Kiryat Shalom and had already persuaded him to come to Israel.
Eventually the deal did not materialize due to a high purchase clause demanded by the Greek team, and the Yellows were left without a senior foreign striker until the arrival of Alexander Peshich in October 2020.
A little over a year later, Yakumakis almost rolled all the way to the 11th Stadium.

Conquers at a dizzying pace.

Fast forward to January 2020. Instead of competing for minutes with Dean David, Yakumakis battled Cristiano Ronaldo in the golden shoe race.
As of the 29th of the month, he is even ahead of him.
With 20 conquests in 19 appearances in the Venello uniform, he became a hit in the Dutch league.
This week he scored a tremendous quartet for the Vitsa Arnham network, and Heath Bali Desa and his teammates over and over again.
Eran Zehavi, who was marked at the beginning of the season as a candidate to finish as the league's top scorer, is ahead by a huge margin.
Overall, he is responsible for 60 percent of his team's goals this season.
All this goodness was received by the small Venlo from AEK Athens for only 150,000 euros, when it purchased it last summer.
AAC has agreed to sell it at a bargain price, in exchange for 10-15 percent of a future sale.
Since then Venlo and Yakumakis have suffered a 13: 0 defeat at the hands of Ajax, but even the humiliation has not stopped the striker's tremendous momentum, which continues to pierce nets.
It is likely that someday the dizzying pace of conquest will stop, but one way or another, Yakumakis' value has soared.
He is ranked fifth in the Golden Shoe table, ahead of names like Arling Holland and Killian Ambape, and is on par with Cristiano Ronaldo (who has scored just 15 goals, but the award scoring system puts him at 30 points, like Yakumakis).
He too can be jealous of such numbers.

Although Venlo is ranked only 13th in the table, Yakumakis is already crowned in the Netherlands as the discovery of the season and it is clear that he will not continue at the club for another season, and will be sold for the most part at a price.
According to reports published in the Netherlands this week, a host of teams from the Chinese league are willing to pay him large sums to land him.

Ashdod?
They are still trying to digest the size of the miss.
