Shagiv Yehezkel (Maccabi Tel Aviv’s official website)
A very impressive purchase for Maccabi Tel Aviv. The champion announced this evening (Monday) the addition of Shagib Yehezkel on a three-year contract, with an option for another season. The 29-year-old winger, who obtained his release from Antalyaspor after the long saga, will return for a second term in Kiryat Shalom, after playing in the yellow uniform in the 2016/17 season and this time he comes from the front door and as a leading player. He signed through his agents Ronen and Gilad Katsav.
The Yellows will start their journey to the Champions League tomorrow at 20:30 when they play in Romania against Stiava Bucharest, when Yehezkel will not play tomorrow, but will be available for the return match as Maccabi signed him up for the meeting. As you know, last season he starred in Antalyaspor, until he marked 100 days to the events of October 7 and was subsequently arrested and thrown out of Turkey. Since then he waged a legal battle with FIFA, until he won.
Ezekiel, who will wear the number 29, told the club’s official website: “Happy to sign with Maccabi, which will be the closing of a circle for me. From the moment my name was linked with the move to Maccabi and throughout the whole period, I received a lot of messages of support from fans, a fact that motivated me a lot. I can’t wait to get back on the court and especially to play in a full Bloomfield. I come back hungrier than ever.”
The winger, who can also play as a right defender and is a member of the Israel national team, previously played for Hapoel Beer Sheva where he scored 16 goals in 82 appearances, MS Ashdod where he scored 15 goals in 51 games, Kiryat Shmona, Bnei Yehuda and Hapoel Tel Aviv . During his career he made eight appearances in the national uniform of Israel and in addition played 25 times in the youth and boys national teams.
After the announcement of his joining Yehezkel shared the official message on Instagram and wrote: “Now the heart is whole.” Since January he has not been able to train in an organized framework because of the legal battle against the Turks, he also of course did not get playing minutes and now everything has been resolved and he will soon join the training of the champion, as soon as she returns from Bucharest, after the match against Stiava.
