Maccabi Tel Aviv to Host EuroLeague Home Games in Cyprus
Maccabi Tel Aviv is reportedly set to host its EuroLeague home games in Cyprus, according to a recent report. The decision comes amid ongoing security concerns that have impacted the team's ability to play in Israel. Club chairman Shimon Mizrahi has reportedly met with EuroLeague President Dejan Bodiroga to discuss the situation.
The Israeli basketball club has been exploring alternative venues for its home fixtures due to the security situation in the region. Cyprus has emerged as a potential location, offering a neutral ground that meets the league's requirements. The exact duration and specific venue in Cyprus are yet to be finalized.
This move highlights the challenges faced by Israeli sports teams in international competitions following recent security escalations. The EuroLeague has previously allowed Israeli teams to play home games abroad under similar circumstances.
