Yam Madar Signs Three-Year Deal with Maccabi Tel Aviv Worth $2 Million Per Season

After a dramatic late-night meeting, Israeli basketball player Yam Madar finalized a three-year contract with Maccabi Tel Aviv, expected to earn him two million dollars per season. Both parties hold options to extend the agreement for an additional two years. The substantial offer from Maccabi Tel Aviv was revealed by ynet amid intensified efforts by the club to secure Madar's signing through negotiations with his agent, Mishko Razentovich.

Initially, Madar declined the $6 million offer over three years, seeking a higher salary. However, his desire to play a significant role under coach Oded Kattash in the EuroLeague ultimately led him to accept Maccabi Tel Aviv's proposal, despite a higher financial offer from their city rival. This signing marks a key acquisition for Maccabi Tel Aviv as they strengthen their roster for upcoming seasons.
