Yonatan Cohen (Pisa’s official website)
The long negotiations between Maccabi Tel Aviv and Pisa on the repurchase of Yonatan Cohen have not yet matured into a conclusion and between the parties there are gaps of about 100 thousand euros. The Yellows will not receive the payment of 1.1 million euros this month that the Italians owe them and have already raised the financial offer from their side to about 400 thousand euros in addition in order for Pisa to agree to sell, but it seems that they are trying to maximize the offer from Maccabi Tel Aviv as much as possible and the deal has not yet been closed .
At the same time, Cohen, who missed the last few games and was not included in the team’s roster due to a neck problem, has since completed a full week of training and has not yet been called up to the team’s roster for the game against Regina. our coach, Rolando Maran, confirmed for the first time from the Italian side that the reason is his expected sale back to Israel: “I will not use Cohen because negotiations are underway regarding him. We have to tell the truth and that is that there are talks about selling him, so he is not playing.”
Cohen himself is waiting for the teams to come to an agreement so that he can himself close the terms with Maccabi Tel Aviv. The transfer window in Israel is still far from over and Maccabi Tel Aviv has about two and a half weeks to close this deal. Everyone expected that at this stage it would be possible to congratulate on the finished product, but it has not happened yet. Even in Italy, Cohen is treated as the history of Pisa and they are sure that in the coming days the deal will be signed.
