Moshe celebrates in the stands (Hagai Michaeli)
The drama last night (Wednesday) surrounding the signing of the zombie brake Dominic Chanda ended with Betar Jerusalem’s owner, Moshe Hogg, deciding to cancel the deal due to the publication of the player’s name on ONE. At 20:40, the club released a teaser on the Facebook page with a post announcing that within an hour they will publish the name of a new player who signed with the team under the headline: “Something is brewing here.”
About 15 minutes later the player’s name was published in ONE and then the club rush began. Immediately after the announcement, Celebrating called the actor’s agent Nir Karin and informed him that the deal had been canceled due to the leak to the media, Celebrating pointed to Karin as the one who leaked the actor’s name.
The players ‘agent swears before me that he has no hand in the leak and that he has no interest in the leak because his interest as a players’ agent is for the deal to go through. But Karin was unable to convince the celebrant to cut off the conversation with the players’ agent and immediately asked the team spokesman to draft a notice stating that Betar was canceling the signing of the brake.
It might have been easy to celebrate canceling such a deal because he is an anonymous player who plays in Zambia and who was supposed to be a complementary player with a meager salary of about $ 5,000 a month. The player was spotted by coach Slobodan Drapic through the Zambian’s Serbian coach, but with the publication of the player’s name on ONE, after which Hughes decided on his own to cancel the deal, Drapic realized that the player who wanted his squad would no longer join the team.
“If it was Eran Zehavi, would they also cancel the deal because of media coverage?” Betar asked. By the way, other players who came to the team and there was an attempt to expose them as part of the teaser that Betar publishes on social media, were exposed by the media in every signing, and examples are not lacking.
The bottom line, the deal with Dominic Chanda has been canceled, at the moment the player’s agent does not intend to sue Betar for breach of contract signed between the parties. Betar insists that the signing was canceled solely because of the publicity on ONE and not because Celebrate regretted and did not really want the player they chose for the team Drapich and Barda. “The decision to cancel the deal is only because it was exposed in the media before it left the club and after we made it clear that this would be the case if the player’s name was leaked. “It has nothing to do with the fact that Drapic wanted the player and did not celebrate himself brought him,” said a source at the club.
