Maccabi Haifa is preparing for a crucial match against Hapoel Be'er Sheva on Monday, aiming to maintain their top position in the league. President Yaakov Shahar attended the morning training session and addressed the players, stating his commitment to selling the club only to an investor who will upgrade it. He emphasized the team's focus on succeeding this season and expressed satisfaction with the recent improvements, urging the players to continue their performance.
Shahar, along with CEO Itzik Ovadia and head coach Barak Bakhar, also observed a youth team match. Professionally, Bakhar faces a significant dilemma at left-back between Tsunami, who was practiced in the role, and Kenny Saif, who has played there recently. Tsunami offers more defensive stability and could allow Bakhar to switch to a three-defender formation with Nigel Lonwijk and Noam Shtayfman.
The decision regarding Ali Mohamed, who trained fully and was practiced alongside Yarin Levi, also remains open for Bakhar.
