Maccabi Haifa Eyes Last-Minute Foreign Player Amidst Squad Weaknesses
Maccabi Haifa is reportedly pursuing a final transfer window move to strengthen their squad with an additional foreign player, as domestic options are limited. The club is considering bringing in a new foreign player, which would necessitate another foreign player leaving the team to make room.
The team is looking to bolster their defensive midfield or defense. If a new player arrives, it could be at the expense of Brazilian defender Pedroso, who has returned from injury but has not yet impressed. Alternatively, a new midfielder or defender might be signed to partner with Nigel Ashong, who has been satisfactory.
Meanwhile, right-back Ilay Baltaxa, who was substituted in the match against Hapoel Petah Tikva due to a head injury, has returned to training and will be available for the upcoming game against Ironi Kiryat Shmona. Left-back Kenny Saief is expected to fill in until Pierre Cornud, who is in the final stages of his recovery, returns.
