After Long Arbitration, Gadi Kinda Cleared to Play for Maccabi Haifa
After hours of intense arbitration discussions, it has been decided that Gadi Kinda will be able to register as a Maccabi Haifa player and participate in the upcoming game against Maccabi Tel Aviv tomorrow. The ongoing financial claim between the two teams will be handled separately.
The decision comes after Kinda officially signed with Maccabi Haifa last week, but faced a legal saga regarding his return to Israel. Before leaving for Sporting Kansas City, Kinda signed a clause that granted Beitar Jerusalem the right to match any offer he received upon his return. However, upon his return, Maccabi Haifa offered a similar deal, which Kinda chose to accept.
Maccabi Haifa argued that there was no obstacle to registering Kinda as his contracts with Beitar and Kansas City had ended, making him a free agent according to FIFA rules.
The arbitrator’s decision was reached after a long and complex discussion, with both parties expressing respect for the outcome and wishing Kinda success at Maccabi Haifa. The decision to allow Kinda to register with the team was made, despite the ongoing financial claim.
The hearing involved heated arguments and testimony from various parties involved, including former Beitar Jerusalem owner Moshe Hogge, as well as representatives from Maccabi Haifa.
Maccabi Haifa’s CEO and legal representative were also present, asserting that Kinda did not belong to Beitar Jerusalem and was free to sign with their team.
The decision now clears the way for Gadi Kinda to take the field for Maccabi Haifa, ending the uncertainty surrounding his playing status.
