The season is yet to be over but rumours are flying high and here we will try to keep the track of the ongoings in the coaching market.
Israeli Premier League 2002/03:
Maccabi Haifa: Grant is expected to sign the contract but nothing is official yet. There is a slight possibility Grant will not continue in Haifa, despite the fact Haifa looking set to win another league title. If he's gone, one name who seems like a candidate to replace him is Ze'ev Zeltzer, the general manager of the Israeli youth teams.
Hapoel TA: Kashtan stays for 3 more years.
Maccabi TA: Highly unlikely that Levin will continue with0 the club. Possible replacements are Giorah Shpiegel and possibly Uri Malmilian.
Hapoel Be'er Sheva: For certain reasons Lupah Kadosh is not very popular among some members of the management, including general manager Yossi Ora. Kadosh however, will continue to work with the club. If not, he might be substituted by Eli Guttman.
SC Ashdod: Elisha Levy will keep coaching the club for the 3rd year in a row.
Hapoel Petah Tikva: Just like in Be'er-Sheva, Petah Tikva has its own can of worms in the management and despite a relatively good success, Guttman's future is still in doubt.
Maccabi Netanya:Shlomo Sharf, the former coach of the Israeli NT and currently a commentator in the radio, and a guy who has good ties with the club, seems like the hottest name today. Netanya is currently guided by Gidi Damti who took over after Malmilian left but after getting one victory in 9 league games, his chances to continue as the head coach are slim.
M. Petah Tikva: Guy Luzon looks sure to continue with the club.
Ironi Rishon: Yossi Mizrahi, who started the season with Beitar is amongst the names being mentioned as possible candidates to take over the club if they stay up. Another name: Guy Levy
Hapoel Haifa: Guy Levy, who is not in good ties with the current General Manager Avi Kauffman seems almost sure to leave. Replacements? Have no idea really.
Kiryat Gat: How many times have I said here that the management hasn't got good ties with the coach? Guess what, this is the case here as well
still, Landau seems likely to continue IF the team stays up. If they go down anything is possible, one name is maybe their former coach Uri Alkabetz or even Itzhak Shum.
Beitar: Eli Cohen's contract ends next season so he should continue. However if we are going down then he might as well leave. Possible candidate, Uri Malmilian?
=================
Possibly promoted teams;
Kfar Saba: Shum will leave the club if they, as expected go up, as the IFA determined that the assistant of the NT coach can't work for a first division club. Guy Levy is a hot name to replace him from what I've heard.
Bney Yehuda: Eli Ohana should continue had Bney Yehuda won promotion.
