Beitar Jerusalem Awaits Clearance for Vorko and Motcha Ahead of Tel Aviv Match
Beitar Jerusalem is awaiting a decision from the Players' Status Committee by Thursday on the cases of Noam Motcha and Daniel Vorko. The committee must determine the transfer compensation fees for the two players before Beitar can officially register them and include them in the squad. This ruling is crucial for coach Almog Cohen, who plans to start both players in the upcoming European competition match against Hapoel Tel Aviv on Saturday. Their inclusion is especially important due to the absences of Tomer Yosefi and Adi Yona in midfield.
Meanwhile, Gil Cohen is training fully and is fit to play, potentially filling in for the unavailable Luka Gadrani and Brian Carvalho. The club has already sold over 8,000 tickets for the match at the Netanya Stadium, with expectations that the stadium will be sold out. The club and the Israel Football Association have indicated that the committee's decision should come today or tomorrow. If the ruling is delayed, Almog Cohen will need to adjust his lineup accordingly.
