Tiberias FC Owner Assures Players of Stability Amid Legal Battles
Arie Kalmanzon, owner of Ironi Tiberias football club, visited the team's training ground on Friday to reassure players and staff following recent legal turmoil. The visit came a week after a court ruling banned Miki Bitan from all club activities. Kalmanzon met with players and the professional staff, emphasizing the club's stability, guaranteed salaries, and lack of impact on athletic achievements.
Kalmanzon addressed recent "noise" surrounding the club, attributing it to ousted individuals attempting to exert influence and extort funds. He stated that court proceedings had definitively ended these attempts, ensuring that those banned would have no involvement with Ironi Tiberias. He also mentioned efforts to freeze the club's accounts, which caused concern.
To ensure continued operations and financial order, the club, in coordination with the Football Association and budget control, has appointed Adv. Liza Chadash as a financial supervisor. She will assist in daily financial management and ensure the team's administrative and professional support remains stable. Kalmanzon stressed that player salaries and budgets are secured.
"There is absolutely no damage to the team's athletic performance," Kalmanzon declared, praising the players' fight to overcome financial deficits. He concluded by urging the team to focus solely on their goal of reaching the Premier League, signaling a "new path" for the club with him and his staff fully present and supportive.
