Maccabi Tel Aviv Players Travel to Sofia Amid Transfer Speculation Ahead of Europa League Match
Despite ongoing transfer rumors, Maccabi Tel Aviv players Sayid Abu Farhi, Roy Revivo, and Tyrese Asante will travel with the team to Sofia for the Europa League third qualifying round second leg against CSKA Sofia. The match is scheduled for Thursday at 21:00 local time, with Maccabi trailing 3-0 from the first leg.
Abu Farhi has attracted a $6 million offer from MLS side Colorado Rapids, which is still under negotiation. Meanwhile, Spanish club Elche has made an offer for Revivo, but no progress has been reported. There are no new developments regarding Asante’s potential transfer. Despite conflicting reports, all three players will depart from Ben Gurion Airport with coach Kenny Miller’s squad.
In the previous match, Revivo stayed in Israel and did not play, Asante came on as a substitute at halftime, and Abu Farhi played 66 minutes before being replaced by new signing striker Astr Sukler. Maccabi Tel Aviv faces a difficult task to overturn the 3-0 deficit and advance to the Europa League playoff round.
