Maccabi Tel Aviv, despite recently winning the Champion of Champions title, is still far from finalizing its squad for the upcoming season. The club is currently negotiating with two foreign players, Amir Saehiti and Astr Sukler, but talks have stalled due to disagreements with Radnički and unresolved terms with Saehiti. If these negotiations fail soon, Maccabi plans to explore other options for a central striker and a winger position.
In addition to foreign signings, the club is considering acquiring an Israeli attacking midfielder. They are also seeking to strengthen their defense by adding a foreign center-back, contingent on player departures. Kevin Andrade is reportedly not in the club's future plans, and his exit would free up a spot for a new signing. There has also been interest in Issouf Sissoko, though no current plans to retain him; a suitable offer could lead to his departure.
Regarding the extended squad, players like Orel Bayya, Younes Malada, and Anis Porat Ayash participated in training camp but did not feature in the Champion of Champions match. This raises concerns about their playing time prospects once the squad is complete, as the current roster already struggles to accommodate them. Maccabi Tel Aviv is actively evaluating its roster and transfer targets to ensure a competitive lineup for the season ahead.
