Hapoel Ramat Gan Promises to Settle Player Bonus Debts Within Weeks

Following reports revealing that several Hapoel Ramat Gan players had not received their promotion bonuses, the club issued its first official response on July 17, 2026. The players, including Gidi Kanyuk, Ezekiel Henty, Nir Berdu, and Moti Barshatzky, are collectively owed substantial sums, with Kanyuk alone claiming 140,000 shekels. Kanyuk stated he has repeatedly contacted the club's CEO Moshe Barkat and plans to file a lawsuit soon due to the unpaid bonuses.

The club clarified that since the arrival of new ownership, management has been working systematically and responsibly to resolve outstanding financial obligations from the previous season. They emphasized that these payments are not overdue or neglected commitments but are actively being addressed. The club assured that all pending issues are expected to be resolved within the coming weeks.

This statement aims to quell the players' concerns and public criticism following the exposure of the unpaid bonuses by Sport 5. The club's commitment to fulfilling its financial duties signals progress toward resolving the dispute without further escalation.
