Maccabi Herzliya coach Nitzan Damari offered to resign from his position following a difficult season that has seen the team fall below the relegation zone after a recent loss to Maccabi Jaffa. Damari's proposal was aimed at shaking up the team's system, but it was rejected by club officials and senior players who value his dedication and talent. They urged him to withdraw the offer and continue leading the team through the challenging period. Damari is expected to manage the team in their upcoming match against Raina and potentially against Kfar Shalem, with joint decisions about his future to be made during the upcoming long break. The club acknowledges the critical nature of this decision as they battle against relegation. Concurrently, the club is actively seeking to strengthen its roster with free agents before January, with player Yuval Ashkenazi reportedly set to sign next week. Ashkenazi, a former Maccabi Haifa player, has been struggling to find a team in the Premier League.
