Beitar Jerusalem's Boris Inno Focuses on Football After Social Media Decision

Beitar Jerusalem midfielder Boris Inno recently removed all photos of himself in the club's jersey from social media, prompting a conversation with head coach Almog Cohen. Inno explained that his decision was not solely due to negative comments from a small group of fans but stemmed from his desire to close all social media accounts and concentrate fully on his performance on the pitch. Cohen related to Inno, sharing that he himself does not use social media.

Meanwhile, Beitar Jerusalem is preparing for the upcoming season opener against Maccabi Netanya on August 29. Left-back Yarden Cohen remains injured and will not play, with Nevo Shudo expected to replace him. Midfielder Adi Yona, who has been increasing his training intensity, is also unavailable. However, forwards Sean Weisman and Yarden Shua are set to participate.

The club is also dealing with the ongoing situation of midfielder Ailson Tabarsh, who is not in the team's plans but has yet to be released. Tabarsh has told club officials that no team is willing to pay a transfer fee for him. The club suspects he is trying to delay a move to become a free agent and increase his salary, likely aiming for a contract in Portugal's second division. Beitar plans to wait until the European transfer window closes to assess which players remain unsigned by top leagues and then initiate contact. The coaching staff aims to recruit a central midfielder to strengthen the squad.
