Roman Sorkin Signs Landmark Maccabi Tel Aviv Contract Through 2030

Maccabi Tel Aviv officially announced on Tuesday the contract extension of Israeli center Roman Sorkin through the summer of 2030. The deal, which spans four additional seasons, solidifies Sorkin as a cornerstone of the team for the foreseeable future.

Under the terms of the new agreement, Sorkin is set to earn approximately $6.5 million over the contract's duration. This represents a significant upgrade from his previous contract, where he earned around $900,000 per season. Negotiations for the extension reportedly lasted several weeks, with Sorkin and his representatives seeking improved terms after an initial offer was deemed too low.

The finalized contract makes Sorkin one of the highest-paid players in the club's history. The 30-year-old joined Maccabi Tel Aviv in the summer of 2021 and has since become a key player. During his tenure, he has helped the team secure three Israeli League championships and four State Cups.

Sorkin's contributions have been recognized with individual accolades, including being named the Israeli Player of the Season for the past two years. In the 2023/24 season, he was also awarded the MVP title for the Israeli Premier League, further underscoring his importance to the team.
