Defender Sambinha has sent a legal notice to Hapoel Ironi Tiberias demanding his release and two months of unpaid wages, as his contract remains unapproved by budget control. His representatives are frustrated by the club's alleged financial difficulties and their request for a new contract. If unresolved, Sambinha may seek arbitration for release without compensation, a path previously taken by player Hadida.

  • Sambinha cannot play as his contract is not approved by the budget control board.
  • A legal notice was sent to the club demanding resolution and payment of two salaries.

Defender Sambinha is reportedly considering legal action against Hapoel Ironi Tiberias, demanding his release from the club due to an unresolved contract dispute and unpaid wages. Sambinha, who has completed a suspension, remains unable to play because his contract has not yet been approved by the budget control board. A legal notice was sent to the club on Monday, demanding the regularization of the player's status and payment of two months' salary. If no solution is found, Sambinha may pursue arbitration to terminate his contract.

Sources close to Sambinha indicate the dispute stems from a financial disagreement. The player signed a two-year contract last season, which is set to expire at the end of the current season. However, the club has reportedly struggled to meet his salary obligations and requested he sign a new six-month contract with more manageable terms. Sambinha and his representatives have refused this request, insisting on adherence to the original agreement.

Sambinha's agent, Shahar Greenberg, stated that the player is frustrated and disappointed by the situation. Despite continuing to train with the team and showing patience, he is still unable to play due to the budget control issue. The possibility of Sambinha continuing with Hapoel Ironi Tiberias appears increasingly remote.

If an agreement is not reached, Sambinha might seek arbitration for a release without compensation, similar to a previous case involving player Hadida. Hapoel Ironi Tiberias responded by stating they had not yet received the complaint and would review and respond once it arrives.
