Maccabi Tel Aviv Defender Roy Revivo Offered Four Times His Current Salary by Spanish Club

Maccabi Tel Aviv is in advanced negotiations with a Spanish club over left-back Roy Revivo, who is expected to earn around 600,000 euros if the deal goes through, nearly four times his current salary of approximately 180,000 euros at Maccabi. The negotiations have been ongoing for about two and a half weeks, during which Revivo continued to play for Maccabi, including matches against Sheriff Tiraspol where he assisted three goals. Despite his professional commitment, Revivo has grown frustrated with the difficulties Maccabi has imposed during the transfer talks, including the club's request that his family relinquish 15% of their ownership of his player rights. This has led to significant disappointment and tension, prompting Revivo to discuss with coach Kenny Miller and decide not to travel with the team to Batumi for their upcoming match on Thursday. The decision to stay behind does not indicate that the transfer is imminent, as major obstacles remain, mainly due to the mental strain surrounding Revivo amid the ongoing negotiations. Revivo will also miss the upcoming Europa League qualifier against CSKA Sofia as the talks continue.
