Alexander Peshic will finish isolation but in doubt until the playoffs

Maccabi Tel Aviv striker Alexander Peshich was due to end his isolation today (Thursday) due to the fact that he contracted the corona virus, and it is very doubtful whether he will return to play until the playoffs. At the moment, the real goal is the Tel Aviv derby for the player, but the fact that he felt bad and reported the symptoms of the virus while he was in isolation, leads to the assessment that he may very well not return to play before the top playoffs.

The Yellows remember well how their players who contracted the virus and reported symptoms felt when they returned to play afterwards, and it is very possible that they will take extra care with the Serb and prefer to arrive ready for the top playoffs and fully qualified. Peshich will in any case end his isolation period and if he reports that he feels good, he will also be able to return to training with the Yellows.

Patrick Van Leven’s team will increase its preparations for the game against Kiryat Shmona today. The players indicate that they expect a very difficult game on the northern field. “Obviously after KS won, a draw is also a result you want and we understand that it is going to be a super hard and exciting game, but it is up to us now, we must continue to win games,” said the yellow club.

Dan Glazer is still in doubt for the game and it is not impossible that he will continue to rest in order to treat the inflammation from which he suffers between the waist and the abdominal muscles. The problem that has joined is the tenderness in the muscle of Andre Geralds, who was replaced for this reason in the game against Betar Jerusalem, and Maor Kandil is on standby for Van Leven’s squad to get Shahar Phiben back to his squad who ran his dismissal. Tal Ben Haim will not be on the roster due to dismissal.

At the same time, the collection of donations for the assembly of food baskets of the Maccabi Tel Aviv Foundation and the Sergeant Brothers Association is in progress and will end during the day. As every year on Passover, the Maccabi Tel Aviv Foundation and the “Brothers of the Symbol”, the Maccabi Tel Aviv Fans Association, hold funds for the purchase of Passover food baskets for populations that Dan does not reach – from lone soldiers, through the elderly, Holocaust survivors to the group’s fans and youth department. So far, about NIS 85,000 has been donated.
