Maccabi Haifa is ramping up its preparations for the resumption of the Israeli Premier League season, with their next match scheduled against Hapoel Jerusalem on Monday, October 12th. Coach Barak Bakhar is expected to have two additional full-squad training sessions before the game, bringing the total to four. The team has been without eight players who were called up for national team duty since their last league win against Ironi Tiberias. These players include Eitan Azulai, Omri Glazer, and Yarin Levy with the senior national team; Noam Steifman, Iyad Hallaili, and Navot Ratner with the U21 team; Kenji Gorre with the Curaçao national team; and Ali Mohamed with the Niger national team. Additionally, four players are with the U19 national team: Mark Golankov, Arad Geist, Daniel Hadar, and Liam Luski. Golankov and Geist have previously trained with the senior squad, and Luski has made appearances for the team. Bakhar is awaiting the return of these players, who are expected to arrive back in the coming days, to fully intensify the team's training regimen.
