Beitar Jerusalem Nears New Contract Deal with Defender Luka Gadrani

Beitar Jerusalem is preparing for its upcoming match against Maccabi Netanya at Bloomfield Stadium this Saturday. The club's attention is focused on midfielder Yarden Shua, who left training on Wednesday due to an ankle injury and is uncertain for the game. Although Shua has shown signs of recovery, he still experiences pain, and the club will attempt to have him ready without risking further injury, especially with a match against Hapoel Tel Aviv scheduled for Thursday.

Striker Sean Weisman is expected to be available for coach Almog Cohen, while left-back Yarden Cohen will be absent. Defender Luka Gadrani, a Georgian center-back, is set to start and is close to finalizing a new contract with Beitar Jerusalem. Gadrani had requested a contract upgrade earlier this summer and expressed his desire to remain with the team. The club values him highly, and the new deal will secure his stay for the coming years. Additionally, midfielder Brian Crabali is also expected to receive a contract upgrade soon.
