Hapoel Acre is searching for a new head coach after a disappointing 4-0 loss to Hapoel Kfar Shalem on Monday, which left the team at the bottom of the National League standings. With only one point from 10 games, the team has yet to score a goal while conceding 27. Lior De Kalbo, who coached the senior team, will return to manage the youth squad. He is the second coach to leave the senior team this season, following Adham Hadia's resignation after just two rounds.
The club's preferred candidate for the coaching position is Nimrod Kostic. Initially, the team considered Shimon Gershon, but he declined the offer due to personal commitments. Moti Iviner was also a candidate, but he too is occupied with personal matters. Another option being evaluated is Assi Alimalech, though there are internal disagreements within the club's management regarding his appointment. Nir Berkovich, who has not coached since leaving Hapoel Ra'anana a year ago, is also being considered. As of now, Kostic remains the leading candidate to take the helm.
