Hapoel Holon won the Israeli championship for the 2021/22 season tonight (Thursday) after defeating Bnei Herzliya 76:90 and completing 0: 2 in the playoff final series.
Now the team will be free to prepare for the next season, and first of all they will deal with players from the current squad before we are free to bring in new acquisition players.
Israelis
Rafi Manko holds a contract for another season, but both sides have an option to leave.
The club highly values the player professionally and socially and wants him to continue, and it is estimated that if nothing out of the ordinary happens, the forward will stay for a second season.
Freddie Bourdieu is ending his contract and is currently not negotiating a new contract with him.
A few months ago, the group members sent an initial message that they were interested in offering a contract, but there have been no developments since then.
However, there are high chances that the player will continue.
Niv Misgav is also terminating a contract, and initial talks between the parties have recently begun on a new contract.
As far as is known the player wants to stay and now the parties need to reach financial understandings.

The big story of the summer will be the future of Guy Pnini.
The purple captain is also ending his contract at the club, and so far there have been no talks between the parties regarding next season.
There has been a significant decline in his status recently, and his future in the group is unclear.
There is a possibility that the club will act as they did last summer and offer a significantly lower contract financially, and then the decision will pass to the player.

Strangers
Chris Johnson is signed for another two years, and except for him all the players are finishing a contract.
Steve Zack, Michael Kaiser, Hayden Dalton and Adam Smith are not expected to continue at this time.

As we posted, the group would very much like to see Joe Ragland continue and have already conveyed initial messages on the subject.
It is possible that the impressive performances of the coordinator in the playoffs will increase his price towards the summer and may also increase the demand for him in other teams.
Holon would like to see Tyros Maggie continue as well, but currently the player's financial demands are high.
professional crew
Coach Guy Goodes is signed for next season, with assistant coach Amit Sharaf also expected to continue.
In addition, Ido Levitt, who worked last season at Hapoel Tel Aviv, will join the professional team.
