Eitan Tibi, who spent seven seasons in Yellow and Blue since joining from Kiryat Shmona in August 2012, will remain a Maccabi player having signed a new 2-year-deal.
Tibi, who will return to wear the number 18 shirt, told the club’s official website: “I am staying at the Yellow home. After several years here, and a very long journey with quite a few achievements, I am delighted to be staying – hoping to enjoy much more success together in the future”.
Maccabi Tel Aviv CEO, Ben Mansford, added: “It gives me great pleasure to announce that Eitan Tibi will continue his time with Maccabi! Eitan has been an important part of what has been achieved at the Club in recent seasons and played his part in helping the team to a number of records last season. It was always our intention to have Eitan sign a new contract and everyone is delighted he will stay in the yellow of Maccabi. As with all of the contracts we have concluded this season, none of them would have been possible without the superb support of Mitch and I would like to thank Mitch for his constant support and guidance”.
