Anticipation in the football association for a meeting at the beginning of the week between Yossi Benyon and Eran Zahavi with the aim of returning the veteran player to the Israel team ahead of the start of the upcoming Euro campaign.
The professional director in Nyon and the national coach Alon Hazan want to return Zahabi to the staff, but want it to be without preconditions and certainly without a prior commitment as an irrevocable condition, that Zahabi will have his own room.
Zahavi hosted the chairman of the football association Shino Zoaretz at his home in recent days in order to find the formula that would bring him back to the team. The meeting would not have taken place if Banyon and Hazan had made it clear that they wanted a team without Zahavi.
On the way to a compromise?

Zoertz is convinced that Zahabi can help in the upcoming campaign, but he would not take a step on his own and without coordination with Banyon and Chan.
At the meeting, Zwartz told the Zahavi that beyond the professional contribution to the national team, he also does not want players on his watch to retire from the national uniform for non-professional reasons.
The root of the dispute between Zehavi and Benion and the cantor remains around the chamber.
Zahavi insists on sleeping alone and claims that it is a professional matter related to his preparation for the games, while Banyon and Chanz want to sleep in pairs.
Zwartz deliberately does not want to get in between them and make a decision on his part so as not to harm the team in any way.
As far as the chairman of the association is concerned, the parties should and can reach an agreement that will benefit everyone and first and foremost the national team.
The association is now looking forward to a meeting between Benion and Zabee and is convinced that the matter is resolved.
