M.S. Ashdod Signs Max Greczkin and Razi Abu Hamdan Ahead of National League Season
Following its relegation to the Israeli National League, M.S. Ashdod is actively strengthening its squad to secure a swift return to the Premier League. On June 29, 2026, the club officially announced the signings of two key players: experienced defender Max Greczkin and standout goalkeeper Razi Abu Hamdan from Hapoel Kfar Saba.
Max Greczkin, 30, who played last season for Bnei Sakhnin and has extensive Premier League experience, expressed enthusiasm about joining Ashdod. He stated, "I am happy to take on the new challenge here in Ashdod. With the experience I've gained throughout my career, I will help the team have a successful season and achieve our main goal."
Razi Abu Hamdan, recognized as one of the top goalkeepers in the National League and recently captain of Hapoel Kfar Saba, joins Ashdod after several impressive seasons. In his last season, he maintained the cleanest sheet record in the league. Upon signing, Abu Hamdan said, "I am very happy to come to Ashdod. I look forward to starting the season and helping the team meet its objectives."
These acquisitions highlight M.S. Ashdod's commitment to rebuilding a competitive squad aimed at immediate promotion back to the top tier of Israeli football.
