Matias Nahuel Joins Malaysian Champions Johor Darul Ta'zim After Leaving Maccabi Haifa

Matias Nahuel, formerly Maccabi Haifa's most expensive signing, has officially joined Johor Darul Ta'zim, the reigning champions of the Malaysian league. Nahuel was released by Maccabi Haifa after a stint that began in 2024, during which he made 24 appearances and scored three goals. Over time, his playing time diminished, leading to a loan and eventual exclusion from the club's plans for the current season. Johor Darul Ta'zim, who won the Malaysian league last season by a 17-point margin, announced Nahuel's signing with the message, "Let's enjoy football again." This move marks a surprising new chapter in Nahuel's career as he transitions to a less expected league following his departure from Israel's top division.
