Sayed Abu Farchi

Young striker Sayed Abu Farchi completes a high-profile move to the MLS and will join the Colorado Rapids after agreeing to waive a portion of his future sale percentage to secure his release.

As revealed by ynet, the yellow team will receive 5.4 million euros from the Colorado Rapids for the striker, who agreed to waive a 500,000-dollar bonus to finalize the deal. He will not travel with the team for the Conference League playoff return leg against Lugano.

The Maccabi Tel Aviv striker has finalized all details with the Colorado Rapids, the American league management needs to approve it, and it seems he has already played his farewell match for the yellow team. His entourage estimates that he will fly to the United States on Tuesday.

The striker will fly with Maccabi Tel Aviv to Bulgaria for the second leg of the Europa League third qualifying round on Thursday (21:00), after which he will head to the USA to officially join the MLS side.

Maccabi Tel Aviv and Colorado Rapids are nearing a deal for the transfer of Sayed Abu Farchi. The package is valued at over $6 million including performance-based bonuses. A final decision on whether the player will feature in Thursday's return leg against CSKA Sofia depends on owner Mitch Goldhar's approval.

Maccabi Tel Aviv estimates that the deal will go through: Sayed Abu Farchi will be able to earn up to 880 thousand dollars per season in the first two years, his intended team is convinced that he will contribute greatly to them - and that they will sell him for a much higher amount than the purchase price.

Amid the ongoing Roy Revivo saga, a top Serie A club is pursuing Maccabi Tel Aviv's young striker. Mitch Goldhar has set a firm price tag of over 5 million euros to open negotiations.

Italian reports suggest that Torino, having sent a scout to watch the young striker against Sheriff Tiraspol, may attempt to sign him. Genoa is also impressed, but Maccabi Tel Aviv will not accept less than 6 million euros.

Sayed Abu Farchi is attracting interest from Italy, with Torino showing the most seriousness by approaching the Cup holder regarding the player. His entourage stated: 'We are trying and pushing, but in the end, Maccabi decides, not us.'

Sayed Abu Farchi is attracting significant interest from European and American clubs. Italian sides Genoa and Torino will send scouts to the Maccabi Tel Aviv vs. Sheriff Tiraspol match in Georgia to monitor the 20-year-old striker. After a strong start to the season with two braces, Maccabi is holding out for a valuation of at least six million euros.
