Businessman Assaf Rappaport, founder of WIZ, has denied rumors circulating on social media that he is considering acquiring a sports team in Israel. While Israeli sports clubs, including Maccabi Haifa, are reportedly seeking wealthy investors, Rappaport has indicated he has no intention or interest in purchasing a basketball or soccer team.
Sources within the business community confirm that Rappaport has been approached with offers to invest in sports clubs, but he has other plans.
