Maccabi Tel Aviv: Geraldesh is expected to leave, Ivić wants to add a foreign attacking player Israel today

Which Maccabi Tel Aviv will we see in the second round of the league?

From a professional point of view it is difficult to know, especially in light of the ability that the Yellows displayed in the first half of the cup against Umm Al Fahm.

Vladan Ivić will hope to get through the first three games of this round without losing points, and on paper his team should not have a hard time against Rayna, Hadera and Kiryat Shmona.

Then the transfers window will open.

Maccabi claim that a foreign winger will be signed during the window.

The Yellows have five foreigners in the squad, so from this point of view they will not encounter a problem.

On top of that, Andre Geraldes may leave, and if that happens there will be room for another foreigner, in which case the preferred option will be the right back position.

The Israeli market does not provide too many opportunities, but as was first published on the "Israel Hayom" website, the Yellows would very much like to add Itamar Shabiru, a striker of Kiryat Shmona, and despite the statements of Izzy Sharetzki that the player will not leave, they believe that there is a possibility of a deal, which The northern team will also receive players.

The good connections between the clubs can probably only help.

As soon as Ivic has another winger, it is possible that the team will switch to playing in different formations such as 4:3:3 or 4:3:2:1, so the goal is for the reinforcement to arrive as quickly as possible with the opening of the window, and not to reach its end, so the Yellows have games Against the champion Maccabi Haifa and also Derby.

Until then, don't be surprised if the Serbian continues to play 5:3:2.

Maccabi lost Idan Nahmias during the offseason, who underwent surgery yesterday to reconstruct the cruciate ligament, but he is one of the players who were least counted on by the coach, and if not for the serious injury, he would have gone out on loan.

Other players who may be loaned or leave are Dan Beaton, Roy Rabivo and Dor Turgeman.
