Hapoel Ramat Gan Signs Midfielder Guni Naor, Striker Yonatan Nikolasco to Join

Newly promoted Hapoel Ramat Gan is set to officially announce the signing of midfielder Guni Naor from Maccabi Haifa on Wednesday evening, as previously reported by Sport 5. Naor joins the club on a free transfer after his contract was bought out for approximately two million shekels.

Additionally, the club is expected to finalize the signing of Maccabi Tel Aviv striker Yonatan Nikolasco before the transfer window closes. However, unlike Naor, Nikolasco will not be immediately available to coach Massai Dego, with medical staff estimating his debut in November.

In preparation for their upcoming match against Maccabi Netanya on Thursday, Hapoel Ramat Gan will be without midfielder Maxim Fushchenko, who has not yet recovered from a groin tear sustained earlier in the summer. Dego may consider starting Christopher Boniface and Marius Noubissi, who have been coming off the bench, in Fushchenko's absence.

Meanwhile, Luan Campos, David Asenka, and Serjan Mihailovic are expected to retain their starting positions in the forward line. The defense is likely to remain unchanged, with Noam Schwartz continuing at right-back, a position recently occupied by Yablo Gatacho. Fard Ibrahim is noted for his consistent performance in the back line.
