Maccabi Haifa forward Silva Kani has recovered from a recent injury and is available for the upcoming match against Hapoel Jerusalem. Kani missed the previous game against Ironi Tiberias due to knee sensitivity but underwent tests that confirmed he is fit to play. He has returned to regular training under coach Barak Bakhar.
Kani, who started the first two league games, has since been relegated to the bench after Andra Novakovic secured a starting position. Kani is currently considered the second-choice striker in Maccabi Haifa's rotation. During a previous match against Kiryat Shmona, Kani faced booing from some fans upon entering the field, leading him to quickly leave the locker room afterward. The club understands the player's frustration but believes he will receive significant playing time and fan support, similar to last season.
Kani joined Maccabi Haifa in a trade deal with Beitar Jerusalem, which also involved Ilai Hagag and a payment of one million euros. He initially arrived as a winger and was later converted to a forward role.
