Israeli midfielder Omri Gandelman is gradually returning to form for his Italian club Lecce after an injury sidelined him since the start of the season. Gandelman played 32 minutes in Israel's national team 1-1 draw against Lecce and then made his first significant appearance for his club on Sunday, playing 11 minutes against Udinese. Italian media outlet "Pianeta Lecce" reported positively on his progress, noting his return after weeks of knee injury and calling his brief appearance a "positive first sign." The report highlighted Gandelman's unique qualities as a midfielder, describing him as someone who can attack and reach the penalty area, move the ball effectively, and utilize his physical presence, particularly in aerial duels. While he is not expected to start immediately, with integration into the team expected to be gradual, he is considered a "very important asset" for Lecce. The club's objective is to reintegrate him at the appropriate time.
