Eli Dasa, captain of the Israel national team, has officially signed a two-year contract with Maccabi Haifa, with an option for an additional season. This move marks his return to Israeli football and the Premier League after a seven-year stint playing for various clubs in Europe. Dasa previously played for Maccabi Tel Aviv before his departure.
Dasa's contract is reportedly worth approximately 300,000 euros per season, a figure higher than the offer made by Hapoel Be'er Sheva, another club that had pursued him. The signing was facilitated by his agent, Boaz Goren.
Upon signing, Dasa expressed his excitement to join a "great club like Maccabi Haifa" and thanked the management for their trust and warm welcome. He stated his eagerness to succeed, win titles, and connect with the fans at Sammy Ofer Stadium.
Lior Refaelov, Maccabi Haifa's professional director, welcomed Dasa, highlighting his high professional abilities, extensive experience, and leadership qualities. Refaelov believes Dasa will contribute significantly to the team's professional goals, support younger players, and strengthen the locker room dynamics.
Dasa's arrival provides coach Barak Bakhar with additional depth at right-back, joining current players Ilay Batay and Zohar Zisano. Dasa began his professional career at Beitar Jerusalem, moved to Maccabi Tel Aviv in 2015, and then played for Vitesse, Dynamo Moscow, and NEC Nijmegen before his return to Israel.
