Gidi Keniuk in Advanced Talks to Join Liga Bet Club Bnei Eilat

Gidi Keniuk is in advanced negotiations to join Bnei Eilat, a Liga Bet (fourth tier) football club, as part of a project led by the club's sporting director, Kobi Refua. Refua, who previously coached Keniuk at Maccabi Petah Tikva, has identified him as the key signing around whom the team will be built. This move would mark Keniuk's first time playing in the lower leagues, which makes the decision challenging due to the change in residence and competition level.

Despite these challenges, Bnei Eilat has presented Keniuk with an ambitious project and a strong desire to rise to prominence, along with a willingness to invest significantly to secure his signing. Negotiations are ongoing, with a decisive meeting between Keniuk and Kobi Refua expected to determine whether he will join the club. This potential transfer represents the first major acquisition under Refua's management at Bnei Eilat.
