Maccabi Haifa is actively seeking a replacement for former coach Barak Bakhar, aiming to appoint a new manager by the end of the international break. Assistant coach David Marten has been temporarily leading training sessions. Professional manager Lior Refaelov and the club's management are spearheading the search for Bakhar's successor.

The club will require the new coach to compete for domestic titles and secure a spot in European competitions, areas where the team fell short last season. Currently, Maccabi Haifa is seven points behind the league leader after ten rounds. However, the club believes that if the new coach can stabilize the defense and reduce the number of goals conceded, the team can still achieve its objectives.

Maccabi Haifa has nine players currently representing their national teams. Omri Glazer, Eli Dasa, Noam Steifman, Eitan Azulay, and Yarin Levy are with the senior national team. Adam Grimberg and Mark Golonkov are with the youth national team. Ali Muhammad played in Niger's 5-1 loss to Morocco, being substituted at halftime. Kengy Hura appeared for Curaçao in their 0-0 draw against Panama. Both Muhammad and Hura have further international matches before returning to Israel.
