Fee done, terms next for Matan Zelmanovics

Hapoel Haifa and Hapoel Kiryat Shmona have settled on $100.0K. The rest belongs to the player and his agent, and a supporter who has watched one of these before knows not to buy the shirt yet.

Maccabi Petach Tikva tell Hapoel Haifa: Luca Franco is not for sale

The approach was made and the answer came back in a sentence. There is no number on the table because there was no number that would have been enough.

Market8 Jan 2029

Wisdom Acquah puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Hapoel Haifa, and it is not being withdrawn.

Antonny gets the move he always wanted

Footballers are asked about their boyhood club so often that nobody listens to the answer. Antonny has just signed for Hapoel Haifa, and for once the answer mattered.

Transfer targets8 Jan 2029

Nigel Lonwijk due for a Hapoel Haifa medical

Everything agreed with Maccabi Haifa, everything agreed with the player; a doctor is the only person left to persuade. The photograph is a day or two away.

Squad8 Jan 2029

A falling-out at Hapoel Haifa

Aaron Spetale and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Squad8 Jan 2029

A row about effort at Hapoel Haifa

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Shai Elias was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

Match6 Jan 2029

Sa'ar Fadida’s goal not enough for Hapoel Haifa

Sa'ar Fadida scored, and precious little else went right: 1‑2 to Hapoel Raanana, and a quiet walk to the dressing room.

Player ratings8 Jan 2029

Sa'ar Fadida in the eights

A performance of 8.04 does not come along often, and when it does the rest of the team becomes scenery. He was magnificent.

Squad12 Jun 2028

A knee injury of the worst kind for Willy Agada

42 days on the estimate, and a long, private, unglamorous year of a rehabilitation nobody watches. Hapoel Haifa lose a footballer; he loses considerably more than a season.

Market12 Jun 2028

Itay Buganim has said yes to Hapoel Kfar Saba

The last thing about a transfer that is still about the player is his signature on his own terms, and it is there. Hapoel Haifa have lost him in all but the paperwork.

Transfer targets12 Jun 2028

Hapoel Tel Aviv tell Hapoel Haifa: Stav Toriel is not for sale

The approach was made and the answer came back in a sentence. There is no number on the table because there was no number that would have been enough.

Transfer targets12 Jun 2028

Hapoel Haifa make their move for Tal Archel

$700.0K on the table at Hapoel Tel Aviv. The manager wanted him, the board agreed a number, and the only voices still to be heard are the ones at the other club.

Transfer targets12 Jun 2028

Hapoel Haifa baulk at the price for Mor Siman-Tov

Hapoel Beer Sheva wanted more than $780.0K and the board would not go there. Walked away, for now, which in a transfer window means until somebody blinks.

Squad12 Jun 2028

Words exchanged at Hapoel Haifa

Aaron Spetale and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Squad12 Jun 2028

Too much change too quickly at Hapoel Haifa

8 signings in three months. Every one of them may be an upgrade and the team can still be worse for a while, which is the part of a rebuild that never appears in the transfer-window verdicts.

Squad12 Jun 2028

Wisdom Acquah signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Wisdom Acquah and Hapoel Haifa agree another 3 years.

The dugout12 Jun 2028

When it matters, Liran Rotman plays

It is never announced and it is entirely visible: the biggest afternoons of the season keep containing him. A press box works this out long before anybody at the club confirms a word of it.
