Squad

A knee injury of the worst kind for Guy David

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

Market

Adi Yona has said yes to Bnei Sakhnin

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

Boardroom

Hapoel Beer Sheva write off $900.0K on Show

He arrived for a fee and leaves for a fraction of it. $900.0K of what Hapoel Beer Sheva paid for Show is money the club will not see again, and the boardroom will be asked about it for two seasons.

Market

Alencar asks to leave Hapoel Beer Sheva

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Squad

Words exchanged at Hapoel Beer Sheva

Kervin Andrade 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.

Squad

A row about effort at Hapoel Beer Sheva

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

Squad

Home is on Enzo's mind

“Some mornings you wake up and you are still a long way from everything you know.” It is not the football and it never was; Hapoel Beer Sheva are dealing with a man who wants a different country.

Boardroom

113% of the income goes out in wages at Hapoel Beer Sheva

Every club in football pays most of what it earns to its players. Paying nearly all of it is a different arrangement, and it has ended the same way every time somebody has tried it.

Market

Talks stall between Hapoel Beer Sheva and Miliano Jonathans

“We are a long way apart, and pretending otherwise helps nobody.” Neither side is close, and the calendar is not on the club's side.

Squad

The knee: Guy David out for 27 days

27 days on the announcement, and a year of quiet, unwatched rehabilitation behind it. Hapoel Beer Sheva lose a player for a season; he loses something harder to name.

Match

Chukwubuikem Ikwuemesi leads the rout of Hapoel Kfar Saba

5‑0, and Chukwubuikem Ikwuemesi took the headlines on an afternoon when everything Hapoel Beer Sheva tried came off. Days like this are retold all winter.

Market

Joseph Opoku 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 Beer Sheva, and it is not being withdrawn.

Boardroom

Window shuts: 32 in, 14 out at Hapoel Beer Sheva

The deadline has passed and the squad is the squad. 32 arrived, 14 left, and everything else printed about this club last month was a rumour that stayed one.

Market

Morrison Agyemang wants more than Hapoel Beer Sheva are offering

“I have ambitions, and I would like the club to share them.” Nobody has asked to leave and nobody has been shown the door — but a player chooses that sentence carefully, and a boardroom hears it exactly as it was meant.

Match

Hapoel Beer Sheva make it 3 in a row

Momentum is a hard thing to buy and an easy thing to lose, and right now Hapoel Beer Sheva have 3 straight wins of it.

Squad

Tempers go at Hapoel Beer Sheva

Kervin Andrade 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.

Boardroom

Belts tighten at Hapoel Beer Sheva

The accounts are being read more closely than the results. Wages before ambition is the order of business now, and the manager has been told so.

Player ratings

One of those days for Hélio Varela

There is a version of this player everybody suspected was in there, and on this evidence it is. 8.54, and no argument anywhere in the ground.

Squad

A knee injury of the worst kind for Guy David

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

Match

Chukwubuikem Ikwuemesi leads the rout of Hapoel Raanana

5‑0, and Chukwubuikem Ikwuemesi took the headlines on an afternoon when everything Hapoel Beer Sheva tried came off. Days like this are retold all winter.

Market

Amankwah Forson 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 Beer Sheva can pretend not to have heard.

Squad

Chukwubuikem Ikwuemesi takes the match ball home

3 goals in one afternoon from one man. The other players were also present, a witness confirmed.

Market

Hapoel Beer Sheva say no — this time

The offer from Hapoel Raanana for Show was heard out and sent back the same day. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loudly the door closes.

The dugout

Gabi Kanichowsky: that is not what I was promised

“Things were said to me before I signed. I am not going to repeat them, but I remember all of them.” Hapoel Beer Sheva have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Market

Gabi Kanichowsky has one foot out of the door

Terms are settled between the clubs and the rest is paperwork and a photograph. Around Hapoel Beer Sheva they have already started talking about him in the past tense.

Squad

Tempers go at Hapoel Beer Sheva

Lee Hyun-Ju 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.

Player ratings

Chukwubuikem Ikwuemesi was on a different afternoon to everybody else

9.64. There are performances a supporter describes to somebody who was not there and cannot quite convey; this was one, and the number does not help either.
