Maccabi Tel Aviv recognizes the team's need for offensive strengthening after failing to score in their last two matches. The Yellows are considering adding a new striker, as their recent goalless draws against Bnei Sakhnin and Beitar Jerusalem highlight the offensive struggles. The team will host Hapoel Haifa on Saturday in the eighth round of the Premier League, hoping to secure a victory.
Beyond the upcoming match, the club understands that reinforcements are necessary in the forward positions regardless of Saturday's outcome. The return of Yoni Nicolascu, expected around December after a long absence, remains uncertain regarding his future performance level. Additionally, Sayed Abu Farhi departed without a replacement, and the current capabilities of Ester Sukler are deemed insufficient. If the situation does not improve, Maccabi Tel Aviv may need to pursue the signing of another striker, either foreign or Israeli.
Regarding the lineup for Saturday's game, Raz Shlomo is expected to be fit. Even if Davida is available, Ezekiel is likely to retain his starting position in the lineup.
