Beitar Jerusalem Explores Signing Maccabi Tel Aviv Midfielder Ori Azou
Beitar Jerusalem is considering the possibility of signing midfielder Ori Azou from Maccabi Tel Aviv. Recently, representatives close to Azou held optimistic talks with Beitar owner Barak Abramov about the potential transfer, hoping Maccabi Tel Aviv would agree to sell the player. Beitar is interested in acquiring Azou if Maccabi Tel Aviv is willing to negotiate a realistic deal, but the club remains cautious and awaits further details to assess the feasibility of the transfer.
Ori Azou, currently under contract with Maccabi Tel Aviv for the coming years, has struggled to secure a regular spot in the team. He has been loaned out and faced injuries, and is now seeking a fresh start in his career. Almog Cohen, who is associated with Beitar Jerusalem, has attempted to bring Azou to the club multiple times in the past without success.
The discussions come after a recent 3-3 draw between Hapoel Ramat Gan and Beitar Jerusalem, which Beitar won 5-4 on penalties, highlighting the club's ongoing efforts to strengthen its squad.
