Hapoel Tel Aviv sell Tal Archel for $900.0K

Tal Archel has left for Hapoel Haifa in a $900.0K deal. The accountants are pleased; the supporters are less certain.

Tempers go at Hapoel Tel Aviv

Andrian Kraev was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Doron Leidner falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Match5 Sep 2026

Hapoel Tel Aviv find a way past Maccabi Petach Tikva

Maccabi Petach Tikva made Hapoel Tel Aviv work for it, but the scoreboard read 3‑1 at the end and the table does not ask how.

A masterclass from Zahi Ahmed

Marked 9.12 — the sort of number a correspondent writes down twice to be sure. Everything he tried came off, and what he did not try was not worth trying.

Squad7 Sep 2026

The manager makes an example of Emmanuel Boateng

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

One of those days for Fernand Mayembo

There is a version of this player everybody suspected was in there, and on this evidence it is. 8.78, and no argument anywhere in the ground.

A masterclass from Stav Toriel

Marked 8.32 — the sort of number a correspondent writes down twice to be sure. Everything he tried came off, and what he did not try was not worth trying.

The Daniel Dappa conversation is coming

Everyone has stopped pretending: Maccabi Netanya will make the call about Daniel Dappa this week. Hapoel Tel Aviv have a number in mind, and the number is not shy.

Market31 Aug 2026

Bnei Yehuda come back empty-handed

The bid was some way short and Hapoel Tel Aviv did not need long over it. Nobody in the game reads a first refusal as the end of anything.

A chastening introduction for Daniel Dappa — 5.66

It is a hard way to meet a crowd. Marked 5.66 on the day he was handed the shirt, and the important thing now is what the next one looks like.

Market31 Aug 2026

Sagi Pinhas hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Hapoel Tel Aviv can pretend not to have heard.

Squad31 Aug 2026

Andrian Kraev in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Hapoel Tel Aviv this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Player ratings31 Aug 2026

Nobody could get near Stav Toriel

Successful dribbles: 21. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Hapoel Acre watching Amit Lemkin

The interest is real enough to have reached print. Hapoel Tel Aviv have said nothing, which in a transfer window is its own kind of answer.

Squad31 Aug 2026

Words at Hapoel Tel Aviv training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Roy Korine is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Squad31 Aug 2026

No hiding place for Xande Silva

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Xande Silva, and the manager let it.

Squad31 Aug 2026

Hapoel Tel Aviv pick somebody else ahead of Roy Korine

There is no complaint available here and everybody involved knows it, which does not make the walk to the bench any shorter. Form is the only currency in football that cannot be borrowed against.

Hapoel Tel Aviv sign Zahi Ahmed for $1.3M

The paperwork is done: Zahi Ahmed joins from Hapoel Beer Sheva in a deal worth $1.3M. Now comes the harder part.

Squad10 Aug 2026

Stav Toriel signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Stav Toriel and Hapoel Tel Aviv agree another 5 years.

Andrian Kraev in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Hapoel Tel Aviv this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Hapoel Tel Aviv spend $1.3M on the signing the town wanted

It is the rarest sequence in football: supporters ask for something, and the club goes and does it. $1.3M for Zahi Ahmed, and for one week nobody is complaining about anything.

Hapoel Raanana watching Mor Buskila

The interest is real enough to have reached print. Hapoel Tel Aviv have said nothing, which in a transfer window is its own kind of answer.

Market10 Aug 2026

36 months and counting on Fernand Mayembo

Still no offer on the table, and Fernand Mayembo’s deal keeps shrinking. In boardroom language, silence this long stops being an oversight and starts being an answer.
