Maccabi Tel Aviv defender Tyris Asante sustained a serious ankle injury during a team training session on Thursday morning at the Kiryat Shalom facility. His foot became stuck in the grass, leading to the injury. He was subsequently taken to the hospital for further examination.
While the exact severity of the injury is still being assessed, the club is concerned it may be a fracture that could sideline Asante for an extended period. The player attracted interest from several foreign clubs during the recent transfer window, with reports in Italy suggesting Lecce had shown interest, but he ultimately remained with Maccabi Tel Aviv for his third season.
Asante began the season in the starting lineup under coach Keni Miler but lost his place in the first eleven during the Europa and Conference League qualifying matches. The signing of James Tavernier further pushed him down the pecking order. However, he returned to the starting lineup against Maccabi Netanya due to a minor injury to Ali Mohamed Kamara during warm-ups.
In the most recent match following the international break, Asante was on the bench and did not play. The injury occurred as the league leaders prepare for their upcoming match against Beitar Jerusalem on Monday at Teddy Stadium.
