Former Israeli international footballer Eyal Golasa, who recently announced his retirement from professional play, has taken on a new role as the director of the football school at Beitar Tubruk Netanya, the club where he began his youth career. Golasa, who had a distinguished career playing for top Israeli clubs like Maccabi Haifa and Maccabi Tel Aviv, as well as Greece's PAOK Thessaloniki, expressed his excitement about returning to his roots.
"I came here as a small child with a dream, I went through a long and exciting journey," Golasa stated. "It's time to come home, I've returned to Tubruk." The club hailed his appointment as a significant step for the future of its young players, calling Golasa a "classic Tubruk success story."
