Yoav Ziv is expected to remain with Maccabi Tel Aviv in a new capacity after concluding his nine-year tenure as the club's team manager. The former player wishes to stay involved with the club and is reportedly set to oversee external relations for the "Yellows." Ziv's departure from the team manager role, effective upon the league's return from recess, comes as CEO Jack Anglidis decided to alter the position's nature. This decision was surprising, and players attempted to reverse it, but Anglidis remained firm.
Despite the change, both Ziv and Maccabi Tel Aviv sought to continue their association, with the club highly valuing the former player and wanting him to remain part of the organization. Ziv has been offered a new role, which he is likely to accept, ensuring his continued presence with the club in the coming years. Raz Ben Shimon is slated to replace Ziv as team manager.
