Recurring injuries plaguing Hapoel Tel Aviv midfielder Stav Touriyal are causing concern for the club and potentially jeopardizing his career prospects, according to analysts on the "Lo Leפרסום" (Not for Publication) program from Walla! Sport. Analysts Ofir Sa'ar, Shlomo Weiss, and Ranen Barnovsky discussed the 25-year-old player's persistent physical issues and their possible impact on his future.
"When Touriyal leaves, asks to leave, it means that in the coming days he won't be available," Sa'ar stated, referring to Touriyal's availability for upcoming matches, including the Toto Cup final against Maccabi Tel Aviv on Thursday and a game against Maccabi Haifa on Monday. Weiss questioned the recurring nature of the injuries, suggesting Touriyal might be injury-prone. "Could it be that Touriyal is an injury-prone player? Because last year, and the year before, it feels like his entire career he's been dealing with this," Weiss remarked.
Sa'ar elaborated that Touriyal has a recurring muscle issue, experiencing sensitivity each time. He noted that Touriyal did not train during the break, and this is not the first or fourth time this has happened. Weiss also wondered why the issue isn't receiving more attention, stating, "But why aren't we talking enough about this? Because in the end, a player like this cannot become the star that was expected."
Sa'ar linked Touriyal's medical problems to his desire to play in Europe, suggesting it was a reason he wanted to join Lecce. "He knows that his career, because of the injuries, can go wrong very quickly," Sa'ar said. While Sa'ar acknowledged that Touriyal initially worried about further injuries, he added that players must focus on football and securing their next contract, though the fear can still affect performance.
