Maccabi Tel Aviv is close to earning a $500,000 bonus after Dor Turgeman scored two goals for the New England Revolution, bringing his season total to nine. The sale agreement includes a $500,000 bonus if Turgeman reaches ten goals and $1 million if he scores fifteen. The New England Revolution have qualified for the playoffs, giving Turgeman more opportunities to score and trigger the bonuses.

  • Dor Turgeman scored two goals, bringing his season total to nine for the New England Revolution.
  • Maccabi Tel Aviv stands to gain a $500,000 bonus if Turgeman reaches ten goals this season.
  • A total of $1 million in bonuses is possible if Turgeman scores fifteen goals.
  • The New England Revolution have secured a playoff spot with Turgeman's help.
  • Turgeman was sold to the Revolution a year ago for $6 million.

Maccabi Tel Aviv is on the verge of receiving a significant bonus payment of $500,000 following the sale of forward Dor Turgeman to the New England Revolution. Turgeman scored two goals in his team's 3-2 victory over Cincinnati on Wednesday night, bringing his season total to nine goals in the league. The New England Revolution have also secured a playoff spot.

According to the sale agreement established a year ago, which saw Maccabi Tel Aviv receive $6 million for Turgeman, there are bonus clauses tied to his goal-scoring performance. If Turgeman reaches ten goals this season, Maccabi Tel Aviv will earn $500,000. Should he score fifteen goals, the Israeli club will receive $1 million. In total, Turgeman's performance in the U.S. could yield Maccabi Tel Aviv up to $1 million in goal-scoring bonuses.

Last season, Turgeman had limited opportunities as he joined the New England Revolution late in the season, which also did not make the playoffs. This limited his chances to score. However, with the Revolution performing strongly this season and advancing to the playoffs, Turgeman has ample time to score additional goals, which would benefit his team and significantly increase the bonus payments to Maccabi Tel Aviv.
