Hapoel Tel Aviv Owner's Son Addresses Fan Frustration After Derby Loss
Following a significant derby defeat, Eyal Safra, son of the owner of Hapoel Tel Aviv, has conveyed a message to the club's supporters, outlining a path forward amidst the current crisis. The team suffered a heavy loss in the recent derby match, leading to widespread disappointment among the fanbase.
Edmond Safra acquired the club in the summer of 2024 when it was competing in the National League. Under his ownership, the team achieved promotion back to the Premier League. Last season, Hapoel Tel Aviv finished in fourth place, securing qualification for European competition.
The current season began with the team's successful progression through the qualifying rounds of the Conference League, defeating Ludogorets and Katowice. However, their European journey concluded with an elimination by Atalanta. The team's performance in the Premier League has also faced scrutiny following the recent derby setback.
