Maccabi Haifa Signs Portuguese Winger Pedro Brazão to Three-Year Deal
Portuguese winger Pedro Brazão has arrived in Israel and is set to finalize his transfer to Maccabi Haifa from Turkish club Bodrum. The 23-year-old is expected to undergo medical examinations before signing a three-season contract, with an option for an additional year.
The transfer fee was significantly reduced due to the closing of European transfer windows. Initially, Bodrum demanded approximately two million euros, a price Maccabi Haifa deemed too high. However, Bodrum eventually agreed to a fee of just 700,000 euros.
Brazão's contract includes an annual salary of around 400,000 euros, with potential bonuses and year-over-year salary increases. The deal spans three years with an option for a fourth.
Brazão is scheduled to attend his first match as a Maccabi Haifa player on Saturday, watching from the stands at Sammy Ofer Stadium as his new teammates face Hapoel Petah Tikva. The team aims to secure a win after a recent loss to Maccabi Tel Aviv.
