Maccabi Netanya's Giorgi Morozov Impresses While Midfielder Aziz Watara Faces Uncertain Future

Following two consecutive wins during their training camp in Krakow, Poland, Maccabi Netanya is awaiting the official signing of Brazilian defender Ze Marcus, recommended by Matias Dabo. Ze Marcus has expressed willingness to join the Israeli club and has already agreed on contract terms. Alongside Dabo, the club continues negotiations with Christian Nowacko, whose potential signing was first reported by Sport 5. Additionally, 23-year-old Congolese winger Isak Tashibango is making a positive impression and remains under evaluation.

The standout player so far in the camp, according to the coaching staff and players, is Giorgi Morozov. The club praised him for elevating the performance of teammates around him and for his smart understanding of the game, qualities they identified as exactly what was needed in the defensive line.

Conversely, midfielder Aziz Watara's standing has declined following the arrival of Nadav Nidam. Watara, whose agent has reportedly been advised to find him a new club, earns over 100,000 shekels net per month. It is likely that a replacement for him will be brought in before the start of the season.
