Muhammad Awad, yesterday at Ben Gurion Airport (Itzik Blanitzky)
Maccabi Haifa did not expect further changes in the squad in the transfer window, but the injury of Nikita Rokavica and the loss of points in the Premier League did their thing. Today (Thursday) Muhammad Awad officially returned to the team, loaned to Polish Lech Poznan and shortened his time as a legionnaire to assist the Greens in their struggles at the top of the league.
Awad told the official website: “I am very happy to return home, to my natural place. Maccabi Haifa has goals and I hope to help them as much as possible.”
In the northern team, quite a few foreign candidates were rejected due to the bureaucracy involved in bringing players from abroad to Israel at Ben Gurion Airport, and after Awad’s candidacy went up and down, it was decided in cooperation with the player to return him to the club where he grew up. Awad played 230 minutes this season in the Polish league and scored one goal in nine appearances. In addition, he scored a goal in the Polish Cup in one appearance at the factory.
Awad has a contract for another two and a half years, so there was no need to sign a new contract. After the derby storm, the Greens will leave on Monday for Teddy Stadium in front of Betar Jerusalem.
