Hapoel Haifa faces a difficult period following the confirmation that key strikers Alon Turgeman and Waeb Habiballah have sustained muscle injuries. Medical examinations revealed physical setbacks for both players, though the timing coincides with the international break, potentially minimizing missed league matches.

According to an official club statement, Alon Turgeman underwent an ultrasound examination after experiencing discomfort, which revealed a small groin tear. The medical staff estimates a recovery period of two to three weeks, with the forward utilizing the international break to complete his rehabilitation.

Meanwhile, Waeb Habiballah received a more severe diagnosis, revealing a hamstring tear. His recovery is expected to take three to four weeks, meaning he will miss upcoming training sessions and at least the first match following the league resumption.

Both players have already begun their rehabilitation and physiotherapy under the direct supervision of the club medical staff. Management hopes to accelerate their recovery during the break to restore key attacking options as soon as possible.
