A few days before the semi-final of the State Cup against Maccabi Petah Tikva (Tuesday, 19:00, Netanya Stadium), Hapoel Nof HaGilil released the foreign defender/defender Sidiki Jawara, who returned to his homeland Gambia on a flight through Ethiopia and Togo and landed in the capital city of Bunjul. Now there are only two foreigners left in the team, the striker Alhassan Keita from Guinea and the Slovenian midfielder Leon Saber.
Jawara, 24 years old, started the season excellently, but the forced war break, which forced him to stay in his country for about two months, took him off track and he had difficulty showing the ability he displayed at the beginning of his career in the Galilee landscape. The official reason for his release is a lower back injury, which limited him. “In his current condition he cannot help us and it is better that he stays at home,” the group says.
Jawara came to Israel from the Samgar team from the first division Gambia, where his contract was… 20 dollars per month. He arrived on loan for free and for $20,000, Nof HaGalil could purchase his player card permanently from his team from Gambia. At this stage, the CEO, Gil Baram, is in no rush to exercise the option on the player and according to club sources, it is doubtful that he will do so. According to his agent, he has an offer from another team from the National League.
Javara: “It’s disappointing to return home before the end of the season, especially when the team is before the semi-finals of the cup. I have only good things to say about Nof HaGilil, especially about coach Motti Iyonir and CEO Gil Baram, who took care of me like their own son. I wish I had the opportunity to repay them in the future. I wish them a lot of success in the semi-finals, I believe in them and I believe they will reach the final against Beer Sheva.”
Jawara added: “In the near future I will rest and receive special treatment in order to be fit for the next season, whether it is in the Galilee landscape or in another country.”
