Everson Tabares Departs Beitar Jerusalem for Portuguese Second Division

Beitar Jerusalem midfielder Everson Tabares has officially been released by the club and will join Chaves of the Portuguese second division. The Israeli Premier League club confirmed the move on Sunday, stating that Tabares was released on a free transfer. This move will save Beitar Jerusalem his salary for the remainder of the season and frees up a foreign player slot, potentially allowing the club to sign a new player before the transfer window closes.

Tabares, who joined Beitar last season, made 21 appearances for the Jerusalem club, providing one assist. His performances last season were deemed insufficient, and he was not part of coach Almog Cohen's plans for the current season. He traveled to Portugal on Thursday and is expected to join his new team shortly.

Chaves has had a difficult start to their season in Portugal, suffering three losses and one draw in their opening matches. They will be hoping Tabares can help improve their momentum. Beitar Jerusalem is also seeking to improve its standing, having yet to secure any points after two rounds of the Israeli Premier League season.
