Kobi Refuah: "Yankovich and Flomin did not give the added value" | Israel today

After another loss in the derby, the Hapoel Tel Aviv coach plans to say goodbye to the two foreigners he brought in January.


If there is one thing that stood out this season at Hapoel Tel Aviv, especially in the top playoffs, it is that the Reds need much better attacking players next season, in order to fight for a ticket to Europe.

Freddie Flomin, who arrived after the transfer window closed due to the war between Russia and Ukraine, was more disappointed than showed good ability, and has no intention of continuing with him for another season.

Hapoel's problem is with midfielder Marco Jankovic, who holds a contract for another season, but often has disciplinary offenses, and there is a desire to part with him.

"Jankovic and Flomin did not give us the added value but they gave the maximum," said coach Kobe Medicine. "I'm not sorry I brought them in. Jankovic was the only player I could bring in January, and Freddie and the goalkeeper because of what happened with Russia and Ukraine."

As was first reported in "Israel Today" about a month ago, goalkeeper Ariel Harush has been marked by the Reds as replacing Ernest Shtakos between the posts next season.

The Lithuanian, who is very disappointed with the conduct around him, may look for another team in the Premier League.

Hapoel's goal this summer is to add a brake, a back contact, a winger and a foreign striker, but they are also examining options for Israeli players.

Striker Shlomi Azulai, who is ending his contract, is expected to receive an offer for a new contract, but according to estimates, he will receive an offer at a reduced salary, and therefore, it is still unclear whether he will continue or prefer another offer.

And what happens to Osher Davida?

The winger, who has suffered from a drought in recent months, will try to leave for Europe and the Reds will sell him for about a million dollars.

"We tried to do everything possible with happiness," Kobe Medicine said, "I even thought of benching him a game or two but I had no alternatives. He was unstoppable when I arrived and we needed him in the playoffs but apparently the pressure on him was great and he had a hard time dealing with it. He is young and I have a bright future ahead of him. "
