Dor Turgeman's performances at the World Cup and the spectacular goal he scored against Brazil in the quarter-finals raised the level of interest in him and German club Frankfurt turned to his representatives to add him. The German club, which finished seventh in the Bundesliga, wants to acquire the Maccabi Tel Aviv striker and he joins the official offer already submitted from Benfica. Despite this, Turgeman tends to stay at Maccabi Tel Aviv and sign a new contract immediately after returning from Argentina.
In parallel with the negotiations with the clubs from Europe, the young striker's representatives are negotiating with Maccabi Tel Aviv for a new contract and it is estimated that he will want to stay in Israel for at least another season and be sold in a year, as happened with Oscar Gloch.

Maccabi Tel Aviv made it clear to Turgeman that next season he will be a significant factor and that the club's interest is for him to play, improve and be sold in the future for a significant sum, similar to Gloch's case. Turgeman is only 19 and a half years old, so he still has time for a move to Europe and seems to prefer to take the most significant step in his career after spending an entire season in the senior team and being a full-fledged player who starts certain games and gets significant minutes off the bench.
By the way, the wonderful goal against Brazil entered the official FIFA page on Instagram, with 42 million followers. The world football body even dedicated an Instagram post to Turgeman, which also boosted his followers to his personal account - from 8,000 followers before the tournament, the striker jumped to 25,<> followers.
