Maccabi Tel Aviv Reaches Agreement to Extend Guard Aifa Lundberg's Contract
Maccabi Tel Aviv is close to finalizing a new contract with guard Aifa Lundberg, who has impressed since joining the team last season under coach Oded Katash. The 32-year-old Danish player agreed to a two-year deal with an option for a third year. Despite receiving several offers recently, Lundberg's strong role on the team and his affinity for Israel influenced his decision to stay.
Lundberg overcame multiple injuries and delivered solid performances, averaging 11.0 points and 3.6 assists in the EuroLeague. In the Israeli Basketball Premier League, he posted averages of 10.5 points and 3.8 assists during the regular season. He elevated his game in the playoffs, leading Maccabi to the championship with 14.1 points, 5.1 assists, and 3.3 rebounds per game.
This contract extension signals Maccabi Tel Aviv's intent to maintain a core player who has contributed significantly to their recent success and championship celebrations.
