Summary: Maccabi Haifa - Hapoel Haifa 1: 5 (Sport 1)
Former Maccabi Haifa player Jando Fox is starting to get involved in Scotland.
The Cameroonian, who joined Dundee United in the 2020/2021 season from Maccabi Haifa, is in the midst of his second season at the glorious club, which is in fourth place in the Scottish league after 16 rounds.
In an interview in France, Fox spoke, among other things, about the period at Maccabi Haifa.
"In September 2019, my agent received a request from Maccabi," Fox recalled.
"At first I was convinced it was Maccabi Tel Aviv, but it was Maccabi Haifa. I talked to the coach and he told me I would play for him and get minutes, so I thought 'why not go there on loan to keep fit and stay conscious?'. In addition, the transfer window was about to close. And I did not receive too many offers. "

"I joined the squad a few days after I arrived in Israel," said the Cameroonian. "But despite that, the coach did not let me play. I was good at training, I invested, I gave of myself and despite that I only played ten minutes in my first four games in Israel. At that moment I realized I was in trouble, so I went to talk about it with the coach."
Fox continued: "The coach made it clear to me that the team captain is actually playing in my position, and that it will not be easy for me to get minutes at his expense. He promised I would play the next game, and kept his word, but immediately after that game Especially after the coach told me he was not building on me. "
The contact concluded: "I asked to return to France, and so it was, but after a few days I was asked to return to Israel because the same captain who plays in my position was injured. So I returned, trained, played and then returned to France. Six months".
Partner in only six games.

The 24-year-old Fox was one of the standout back-to-back ties in the French sub-league before being acquired by Alavés.
After the Basques started pre-season training, they concluded he was not ready for the Spanish league yet and wanted to loan him out.
Maccabi Haifa came into the picture and added him shortly before the summer transfer window closed, but in the end the Cameroonian participated in only six games - five of them as a substitute - and the Greens parted ways to clear a foreigner's slot.
