Soccer player Eli Dasa has officially signed a two-year contract with Maccabi Haifa, with an option for an additional season. The signing, facilitated by his agent Boaz Goren, marks Dasa's return to Israeli football after a seven-year absence.
Dasa, who captains the Israeli national team, is reportedly set to earn approximately 300,000 euros per season. Maccabi Haifa's offer was reportedly more lucrative than that of Hapoel Be'er Sheva, which had also pursued the right-back.
"I am happy and excited to join a great club like Maccabi Haifa," Dasa stated after the signing. I come here hungry to succeed and win titles, and I'm eager to meet the fans at Sammy Ofer Stadium and start this new chapter together."
Lior Refaelov, Maccabi Haifa's Professional Director, expressed his pleasure with the acquisition. "Eli brings high professional abilities, rich experience, and leadership, both on and off the field," Refaelov said. "I am convinced his qualities will help us achieve our professional goals, alongside his contribution to the young players and strengthening the locker room."
Dasa's arrival provides significant reinforcement for coach Barak Bakhar's right-back position, which currently includes Belgian Yila Battaï and Zohar Zisano. Dasa began his professional career at Beitar Jerusalem, moving to Maccabi Tel Aviv in 2015 before stints in Europe with Vitesse, Dynamo Moscow, and NEC Nijmegen.
