Hapoel Petah Tikva Replaces Security Firm Amid Violence, Negotiates with Hamidou Keita
Following violent incidents during the halftime break in a match against Maccabi Netanya, Hapoel Petah Tikva announced a change in its security provider. The club informed that the previous security company contract was terminated and a new firm will take over starting from the upcoming home game against Hapoel Jerusalem on Saturday. The club emphasized that the new security company will meet strict criteria regarding recruitment, employment, and training to ensure the required level of safety and service at matches.
Meanwhile, player Chepioka Songa is expected to leave the club permanently and sign with a Portuguese team once his visa issues are resolved. Hapoel Petah Tikva is continuing negotiations with Hamidou Keita, a 28-year-old Ghanaian winger who last played for French club Stade Toulousain. Keita is considered a potential offensive reinforcement for coach Omer Peretz's squad.
