“Can’t anymore. I miss being with the boy and the woman. I’m here all day alone and can not give my forearm my percent, when I’m not in the mood” – this sentence of Hatem Abdel Hamid to his agent Dudu Dahan last Tuesday preyed on the cards. The agent, who is on good terms with Alona Barkat, immediately conveyed the message to her. The owner, who went back to business and was at the forefront, knew she needed to get back in line, and Alhamid is in line. Both financially and professionally.
The conversations were on a daily basis. Both with Alhamid who expressed a complete willingness to return and also with Celtic management as Dahan on the mediator standard. At first BS offered to ask the player with an option to buy him in the summer, but the Scots refused.
In the end, the Scots asked for 1.2 million euros and after Alhamid had a heart-to-heart conversation with senior club officials and Celtic coach Neil Lennon, it was decided to reduce the amount a bit to create a compromise that would be acceptable to the Israeli team as well. Barkat’s offer talked about $ 300,000, because the club does not pay in euros and although Alhamid knew he was losing quite a bit, the desire to be with the woman Manar and the son he had not seen for a while, is worth more than money.
In order for the deal to be executed for Alhamid it was made clear that he would not receive a contract with an exit clause, but would win a long-term contract of three and a half years. The player still tried to insist, but he too had to reach a compromise. Alona Barkat spoke with the defender personally and he is also expected to be the second captain if Miguel Vitor stays at the club. To the extent that he may not get the film.
