Summary: Maccabi Haifa - Bnei Sakhnin 1:3 (Sport 1)
Maccabi Haifa continues to deal with the issue of Neta Lavi, when according to senior officials in the system there is already reconciliation in the club with the expected departure of the captain.
As I recall, Lavi received an offer from Gamba Osaka for a contract in which he will earn about one million euros per season and according to Haifa people, he made a principled decision to accept the offer and leave in January.
The owner Yaakov Shahar gave a verbal promise to the captain two seasons ago that he would be released if an offer came, and now he intends to keep his word.
In Osaka, they offered 300,000 euros as compensation to the Greens, who are interested in a higher amount.
Now there are negotiations between the parties, but it is estimated that this will not prevent the transition.
"99 percent of those who plant will leave," said the cave official in detail.
"Yankel'a is doing everything for Nate to stay and made him a very high offer by any standard, but it seems that Nate is determined to leave and that is what is emerging."
In Haifa, as mentioned, they are looking for an alternative, with Aden Kartsev and Goni Naor being the leading candidates.
At the same time, among some of the club's members, the name of ex-team member Biram Kiel came up as a candidate, if and when Levi would leave.
As a reminder, the 34-year-old Kiel left Maccabi Haifa for Celtic in 2010 and returned more than two years ago to Bnei Sakhnin after an extensive career in the British Isles.

Earlier, Barak Becher commented on the possibility that Lavi would leave and said: "Everyone knows there is an offer, it's Netta's decision. Obviously, as a coach, I want him to stay, because he is a very important player, but a player also has his own wishes and you have to know how to respect them. I hope he stays, But if not, there will be other players who will be in his place. Every season there are players who are missing. If Neta leaves, we'll get along, we'll find alternatives. Neta is a significant and important player, but there's no point in messing with it. At the moment, nothing is closed. As far as foreigners are concerned, we're closed, it's a question of Israelis and there aren't too many options. Our squad is strong enough to go all the way, maybe there will be one change or another, but there won't be a revolution."

In the past, the team won the Japanese championship twice (2005 and 2014) and last season all five of its foreigners were Brazilians, alongside one Asian reinforcement from South Korea.
