Maccabi Tel Aviv Eyes Foreign Winger, Striker, and Defender Ahead of Transfer Deadline
Maccabi Tel Aviv, enjoying a strong start to the Israeli Premier League season, is actively pursuing reinforcements before the transfer window closes on Wednesday. The club's primary target is a foreign winger, with Mor-Ghan Bukele being the top priority. Despite significant efforts to finalize a deal, Bukele has expressed reluctance to join an Israeli club at this time, and Maccabi is working to persuade him.
In addition to the winger search, Maccabi Tel Aviv aims to sign an Israeli striker, with Alon Turgeman being the preferred choice. Should negotiations for Turgeman prove unsuccessful, the club will explore alternative options. The team is also considering the addition of another Israeli defender, as no direct replacement has been found for the departed Heitor.
Concurrently, Maccabi Tel Aviv is preparing for the upcoming Tel Aviv derby against Hapoel. Coach Keni Miller is expected to field the same lineup that secured a decisive 4-1 victory over Hapoel Be'er Sheva. James Tavernier will feature in defense, while Gabi Kanyikovsky will continue in midfield alongside Dor Peretz and Ismael Sissoko. Ester Sukler is slated to lead the attack.
