Yermakov also thanked the club's president, management, and the professional staff, especially the goalkeeper coaching team led by Itay Zilpa, for their trust and daily hard work. He acknowledged his teammates and the honor of sharing the locker room, training sessions, and matches with them. Yermakov concluded by saying that Maccabi Haifa will always hold a special place in his heart. His farewell message reflects the strong bond between the player and the club as he moves on from the Israeli Premier League team.
