Maccabi Tel Aviv Players Shocked by Club Manager Yoav Ziv's Dismissal
Maccabi Tel Aviv players expressed significant surprise following the club's management decision to dismiss Yoav Ziv from his role as team manager. The players were reportedly unaware such a move was imminent and were taken aback by the news. Ziv himself was also blindsided by the decision.
Several players, including captain Dor Peretz, learned of the dismissal while with the national team in Hungary and are attempting to persuade the club's management to reverse their decision. The players have a strong relationship with Ziv, who has served the club for over nine years, initially as a prominent player during their championship era under Jordi Cruyff and subsequently as manager.
Players credit Ziv with intervening on their behalf during an incident following the State Cup final in May. This action, along with his long tenure and past contributions as a player, has led to the widespread shock and attempts to understand the rationale behind his termination.
