"Oded Katash is to blame, and not only for how Maccabi Tel Aviv play"

In depth

Pini Gershon claimed on the "Al HaBazar" podcast that Richard Ditz is delaying Maccabi Tel Aviv's reinforcement, and that Claudio Coldebella is presenting candidates for the reinforcement. According to Israel Hayom, Gershon claimed the moves are backed by emails. According to Sport5, Ditz published internal correspondence with Coldebella and the other shareholders.

According to ONE, Ditz responded to Gershon in a letter, writing that it is "absolute fake news". According to Ynet, Ditz claimed he supported a quick move to sign a new player. According to Israel Hayom, Ditz claimed that Claudio Coldebella was instructed to find a cheap player, and that he received an email five days after Ifeanyi Ludenberg was injured.
