Hapoel Tel Aviv Holds Season Opening Training with New Signings Ahead of 2026/27
Hapoel Tel Aviv, which resumed training last week, is holding its traditional opening training session today (Sunday) to prepare for the 2026/27 season. Three new signings will participate in the session: midfielder Yehonatan Farber from Hapoel Haifa, midfielder Itay Shavit from Hapoel Kfar Saba, and third goalkeeper Shon Ben Nesher.
Fans are eagerly awaiting a major signing following the sale of Louizos Louizo to Red Star Belgrade. The club aims to finalize the acquisition of Tiémoué Diarra, having reached an agreement with Reims on the transfer fee. Negotiations with Diarra, who is also sought by Turkish club Kasımpaşa, are ongoing.
Additionally, Hapoel Tel Aviv is looking to sign a left-back to compete with Doron Leidner, who was acquired last week from Olympiacos. The leading candidate is Yahav Gurfinkel, who has assured the club that if he plays in Israel, it will be for Hapoel Tel Aviv. Meanwhile, the club is exploring alternative options for the position.
