Market

Maccabi Tel Aviv join the queue for Hamode Kanaan

Add another name to the list: Maccabi Tel Aviv have asked the question everybody in the game has been asking about Hamode Kanaan. The answer from Hapoel Beer Sheva has not changed — yet.

Squad

Tempers go at Hapoel Beer Sheva

Lucas Ventura 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

Graduation day at Hapoel Beer Sheva

5 boys move up, and somewhere in the building the people who coached them at twelve are quietly having the best morning of their working year. Nothing about this shows up in a result and it is why the academy exists.

Squad

Dan Biton 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.

Market

One of our own: Uri Melikson joins the Hapoel Beer Sheva first team

Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. Uri Melikson is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.

Market

One of our own: Gil Dabbur joins the Hapoel Beer Sheva first team

Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. Gil Dabbur is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.

The terraces

Hapoel Beer Sheva sell a favourite for $1.3M

The accountants will call it good business and they will be right, which is not the point anybody outside the boardroom is making. Niv Eliasi was one of the reasons people came, and $1.3M does not replace that by itself.

Market

Hapoel Beer Sheva sell Niv Eliasi for $1.3M

Niv Eliasi has left for Hapoel Haifa in a $1.3M deal. The accountants are pleased; the supporters are less certain.

Squad

Lucas Ventura 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 Beer Sheva this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad

Words at Hapoel Beer Sheva training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Miguel Vítor 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.

Squad

No hiding place for Hamode Kanaan

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

Market

Ofir Davidzada is free to find somewhere else

“I was told straight, and I would rather have it straight.” The manager at Hapoel Beer Sheva has been clear about where Ofir Davidzada stands, which is more than many ever get.

Market

Hapoel Beer Sheva say no — this time

The offer from Maccabi Tel Aviv for Hamode Kanaan 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.

Market

Eyes on Niv Eliasi again

The phone has started ringing about Niv Eliasi again, and this time the name on the line is Beitar Jerusalem. Hapoel Beer Sheva are listening politely and promising nothing.

Market

Nicolás Molina arrives at Hapoel Beer Sheva in a $530.0K statement of intent

There comes a point where a club either backs its own ambition or admits it does not have any. Hapoel Beer Sheva have paid $530.0K for Nicolás Molina, which is the loudest way there is of saying which one it chose.

Squad

Hamode Kanaan signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Hamode Kanaan commits to Hapoel Beer Sheva for another 4 years.

Squad

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 Beer Sheva this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.
