  • He received support from Israeli football figures and his brother.

Israeli footballer Anan Halaily experienced a turbulent day after his transfer from San Žilouaz to Inter Milan collapsed due to failing medical tests. The deal, which would have been the biggest in Israeli football history, did not materialize, leaving Halaily visibly shocked but determined to move forward. He expressed to close associates, "I really wanted to play for Inter, I’m a bit stunned but there’s nothing to do, we must continue, it will be good."

Despite the setback, Halaily received support from various figures in Israeli football, including Maccabi Haifa officials, youth national team coach Ofir Haim, Hapoel Ramat Gan coach Masai Dago, and his brother Iyad Halaily, who all encouraged him during this difficult period. Halaily also posted a smiling photo on Instagram, attempting to maintain a positive outlook.

Meanwhile, Ipswich Town from the English league has shown interest in signing Halaily. The club, which officially contacted San Žilouaz in May, plans to accelerate negotiations and reportedly has the financial resources equivalent to what Inter Milan intended to offer. Past cases suggest that medical examinations in England are less stringent than in Italy, fueling optimism among Halaily’s circle that a transfer to Ipswich could be completed during the current transfer window.
