special thank you to the fans of Hapoel Beer sheva. You guys made me strong
mentally as a player. I will never forget you all. Thank you for accepting me.

everything. Thank you for the memories together. I will always be your number
one supporter. I love you all from the bottom of my heart,” he wrote on his
