Maccabi Petah Tikva did it! 72 years the Malavites waited for the title and tonight (Thursday) they won the state cup thanks to a huge 0:1 over Hapoel Be’er Sheva. The team from the mother of the colonies will play in Europe for the first time since 2006 and it is time to check how it should look next season.
Let’s start from the back. Marco Wolff will continue at Maccabi Tel Aviv and will be its first goalkeeper next season as well. As we know, Ofek Malika left for Maccabi Tel Aviv and the team is expected to bring back Maor Ehrlich from the loan at MS Kfar Kasem in order to be the second goalkeeper. Their contracts and together with them Obeidah Khatab should secure his future in the team. Aviv Salem, on the other hand, is interested in joining. Gal Maatuk is expected to return from the loan from Ramat Hasharon.
Maccabi PAT intends to keep other players who starred in its ranks this season. Luka Stur, who arrived in January, extended his contract while the club intends to keep the three young stars Niv Yehoshua, Liran Hazan and Guy Dezent and it is unlikely that they will be sold to another team in the summer.
Compared to the three, Idan Toklomati is expected to make the leap when Maccabi Pet. plans to sell him, but only after the Olympic Games. Maor Levy, one of the team’s most prominent players this season, will also not continue and is said to return to Maccabi Haifa, which is considering not loaning him once more. At the same time , Beitar is also interested in contact.
And what about Ran Kozuch? Both the coach and Maccabi Pat are interested in continuing the contract, and there are agreements and understandings regarding the construction of the squad for next season. Currently, the only obstacle is the salary of the coach, but the parties believe that they will resolve it in the near future.
