Safra’s program with Hapoel Tel Aviv

After countless problems and delays in negotiations, Hapoel Tel Aviv is entering a new era. Edmond Safra officially became the owner of Hapoel Tel Aviv yesterday (Saturday) evening instead of the head of the group of American investors and he will take the role of returning the red club to the top of Israeli football.

The Jewish philanthropist, whose family is involved in a number of donations and activities in Israel, including the establishment of the children’s center in Tel Hashomer, has also made an impact in Israeli football and is taking it upon himself to take Hapoel Tel Aviv on a new path. Edmond Safra’s name and the fact that he is the man behind the purchase of Hapoel Tel Aviv was first published here in ONE.

As published, Safra’s son, Moiz Safra, is in continuous contact with the club’s management, as he is already getting to know more and more Israeli football and has many plans for the youth department and building academies throughout the country, among others in the south of the country as soon as the security situation allows it. The 19-year-old Muiz will speak tonight at 20:00 as part of Spice on the social network ‘X’ (formerly Twitter).

Edmond Safra’s representatives requested at the weekend to convene the committee for the transfer of rights in the football association on Sunday, August 18, but now they are trying to advance the committee to this Thursday, August 15. The most important task as far as Safra is concerned is to transfer the team to the Budget Control Authority so that Masai Degu will benefit from a full squad and also from the professional team in the semi-finals of the Toto Cup this Thursday.

Edmond Safra is determined to build a professional as well as a community club. At the professional level, the ultimate goal is to appoint a professional manager who will chart a path from the senior team to the youth department. The goal is currently to build a team that will guarantee promotion as quickly as possible and he gave an instruction to the decision makers below to sign from now on only players at a level worthy of the Premier League in order to prepare the team for next season as well and avoid a revolution.

The transfer of ownership is expected to accelerate the continued strengthening that Masai Dago requires. Hapoel is trying to convince a number of Premier League players to come down and play in the National League, including Aden Shamir, who is still undecided. Azaria from Beitar Jerusalem also discussed the plans, when another thing that was considered is to add a left defender instead of David Kuperman.
