Maccabi Haifa to Pay €300,000 to Red Star Belgrade for Goalkeeper Omri Glazer
Omri Glazer is set to arrive in Israel within days after agreeing terms with Maccabi Haifa, where he is expected to earn around €400,000 per season excluding bonuses. The transfer was finalized after Maccabi Haifa intervened, as Glazer initially sought to leave Red Star Belgrade independently due to unpaid wages, but the Serbian club demanded compensation for his release. Ultimately, Maccabi Haifa will pay approximately €300,000 to secure Glazer's transfer. Having trained with Red Star Belgrade until now, Glazer is reportedly match-fit ahead of the Toto Cup matches starting next weekend.
In a related development, Maccabi Haifa is close to finalizing the sale of Giorgi Yermakov to Metalist Kharkiv. The club insisted on retaining a percentage of any future transfer fees, a strategy previously used in the sales of Anan Khalaily and Lissab Issat. Maccabi Haifa expects Yermakov's future transfer value to increase and hopes to benefit financially from it. The current deal is estimated to bring the club nearly €3 million.
These moves reflect Maccabi Haifa's active engagement in the transfer market ahead of the new season, aiming to strengthen their squad and secure financial gains from player sales.
