Early preparation: Maccabi Haifa wants to reach the peak already at the beginning of the 2022/23 season | Israel today

2022-07-06T04:47:05.306Z


The signings of Piero and Corno raised expectations • Upgrading contracts for key players, which will significantly increase the budget • And closing the squad before leaving for training camp • Maccabi Haifa did everything to reach the peak at the beginning of the season: "The goal is at least the home stage of the Europa League"


This is the second year in a row that Maccabi Haifa is completing the construction of its staff even before taking off for the training camp.

This is a work plan of professional manager Gal Alberman, but also in drawing lessons from previous years when the team was not ready in time and connected slowly when the league started.

Franzi Piero and Pierre Corno will only join the training camp in the Netherlands, but the club clarified: "From their tests, the physical condition is excellent, and the camp will bring them in an almost optimal way ahead of the games against Olympiacos."

Along with Alberman's plans, there were also desires on the part of coach Barak Bachar.

Thus, for example, the management thought of giving this season an opportunity to striker Stav Nachmani as part of the rotation.

Bachar preferred Rokavica, conveyed the message - and within a week the 35-year-old Australian returned for a second term in Carmel.

Rokavica's signing gave more time in negotiations with Piero, with whom things went more difficult.

"Barak Bachar got everything he asked for," they clarified at the club. "It will make us completely give up on another brake. It is a possibility that will be good for all parties, but it all depends on the players."

Following the addition of new players, the next plan is to upgrade salaries and extend contracts with existing staff.

Brakes Sean Goldberg and Bogdan Planic, captain Neta Lavie and midfielder Omar Azili are the prominent names they want to keep.

For the noble, the picture is more complex.

Although the king of league goals and a player of the season has a contract for two more seasons, the low departure clause, which stands at only 300,000 euros, is something that Haifa wants to cancel and lock Noble for another four years at the club. For that to happen, his contract must open. Today, a nobleman earns about 25 percent less than his salary before the affair that led to the departure of Maccabi Tel Aviv.

The club estimates that if the difference is refunded, Noble will close six seasons in the green.

Beyond that, in talks with Planic, the Serbian stopper expressed a willingness to continue, with his current salary being one of the highest in the group and exceeding 400,000 euros.

Due to this, the options to upgrade it are more limited, so the club hopes that it will be possible to sign him at the existing salary and extend the contract for another year.

Sean Goldberg came in as a faculty player, and not beyond that, at a salary befitting his status, around $ 150,000.

But since then he has taken the first brake position, a place in the national team, and the expectation on his part is for a compatible upgrade.

"Degrees and championships cost quite a bit of money, not just in the procurement sector," said a source in the system.

In light of this, the budget from last season will increase significantly and approach NIS 100 million.

In Haifa, it is believed that immigration to the European home stage will balance the budget, but for that they must go through at least one stage in the qualifying rounds.

"The goal is at least the home stage of the Europa League," Carmel clarified.

Given the fact that the management met all the requirements of the professional echelon, anything else would be considered a big disappointment.
