Maccabi Tel Aviv Loans Midfielder Ori Azu to Beitar Jerusalem
Maccabi Tel Aviv and Beitar Jerusalem have reached an agreement in principle for the loan of midfielder Ori Azu to the Jerusalem club for the upcoming season. Under the terms of the deal, if Azu participates in at least 70% of Beitar's matches this season, Maccabi Tel Aviv will have the option to purchase him at the end of the season. Following the agreement between the clubs, Beitar is expected to finalize Azu's personal terms to complete the transfer. The young midfielder is anticipated to join the squad and bolster the team's forward line. Azu's transfer fee is set at 1.5 million euros.
Last season, the 21-year-old winger was loaned to MS Ashdod, where he scored two goals and provided one assist in 15 appearances in the Premier League. In parallel, Beitar Jerusalem is also pursuing foreign acquisitions, with the club expected to purchase Colombian midfielder Alexis Serna for 450,000 euros.
