Great tension in Beitar Jerusalem ahead of the hearing tomorrow morning at the Rishon Lezion Magistrate's Court, in the club's request to cancel the restrictions imposed by the police on the sale of the team from Moshe Hogge to Barak Abramov. If the court rejects the request, Beitar will be in great distress and on the verge of relegation to the National League , on the way to liquidation.

"It's August and we haven't really started to prepare a team for the season. We're missing a lot of players, we haven't started selling subscriptions, and the audience is crushed. This saga must end, this club is important to so many people, and we hope that the court will understand that," said the club.

Beitar's big problem, and both Hogge's and Abramov's lawyers agree, is the feeling that the police do not intend to "get off" the current owner. From the police's point of view, Hogge has committed fraud on a large scale, he is defined as a criminal and at this stage their goal is not to allow him to transfer assets Onward, with or without compensation.

In addition, in the responses of the police yesterday, it was possible to understand that the problems are far beyond the guarantee required for the payment to the celebrant and singularities in the amount of NIS 11 million.

The police object to other things, including Hogge's waiver of Beitar's NIS 24 million debt towards his share in Singularit, to Abramov's personal guarantee for the non-bank loans taken by Beitar.

In general, the police opposes any agreement signed without its knowledge and approval.

For Barak Abramov, the red line is personal guarantees and he does not intend to cross it, neither with money nor with assets.

The solution can only be provided by Moshe Hogge and his representatives.

The police are quite dismissive of Beitar's claim that if the restrictions are not lifted, the group will go into liquidation and the creditors will not get to see their money. According to the police, "If that were the case, why does a partygoer demand money for a business that is on the verge of liquidation and is worth nothing?"

So what are Beitar's chances? It could be seen that the court is in no hurry to provide a hearing in the hall and did so only after a repeated request. Hogge's case is very complicated and it can be seen in previous discussions regarding guarantees and a possible departure from the country, that the court strengthened the hands of the police on the issue and understood the extent The case.

At the same time, until now it was mainly about the celebrant himself. Due to the fact that thousands of fans are emotionally involved in Beitar Jerusalem and that this is not an ordinary company, the judges may consider and look for creative solutions, as has happened many times in the past.

The police, for their part, will not give up, they will go to court and continue the offensive line until the end.

Beitar and its fans should pray for the compassion of the court and the judge, in the hope that the emotional aspect will cause the court and the police to exclude one property of a celebrant from the list of properties and to flex its position regarding its sale to Barak Abramov.
