In the last two years, Maccabi Tel Aviv has seen how Maccabi Haifa leaves its dust, so the yellow club really wants to change the situation.
To start thinking in the direction of the team must close on a coach for next season, but it turns out that it is not so simple.
The leading candidate of the Yellows, who recorded a 1-0 loss to Bnei Sakhnin yesterday, is of course ex-Vladan Ivic.
The thing is that the Serb is in no hurry to return to Israel and is still waiting for an offer from a more senior league than Israel.
Maccabi knows all these things and is already examining the options of other foreign coaches.
"We must not fall with the coach next season," they said around the club.
Mladen Krestajic.
It is not expected to continue in Kiryat Shalom,
The next coach to arrive will decide on two issues - whether to leave Stifa a break-in, whose future also depends on the arrival or non-arrival of Eran Zehavi, and whether to give the Parfa Guigon midfielder the credit next season, when the plan is currently to bring him back from loan in Netanya.
Regardless of the identity of the next coach, the Yellows will undergo a major revolution in the roster.
It is estimated that between 7 and 8 players, even those with a contract, will leave or sell to another team, with the professional manager, Barak Yitzhaki, trusting the revolution in question alongside the owner's representative Jack Angelidis.

"They didn't want to replace so many players this year either, but there is no choice," said a source close to the team leaders. "A lot depends on the next coach.
If Ivica comes there will be players who may want them now and they will not continue.
If another coach comes in, that will change. "
