Watch: Anan Khalaili scores for Union Saint-Gilloise against Antwerp/Sport1

Against the backdrop of Anan Khalaili's expected signing with Inter in the largest and most expensive deal in Israeli football history, social media has questioned over the past week whether the emerging transfer is receiving proper coverage or if enthusiasm appears relatively restrained because Khalaili is not Jewish.

Former Meretz MK Mossi Raz also addressed the claims surrounding the coverage of Khalaili and tweeted: "Congratulations to Anan Khalaili from Sakhnin who was sold this week for 30 million euros to Inter Milan, champions of Italy, the biggest deal in the history of Israeli football. Didn't hear about it? If he was Jewish you would have heard about it."

Congratulations to Anan Khalaili from Sakhnin who was sold this week for 30 million euros to Inter Milan, champions of Italy, the biggest deal in the history of Israeli football. Didn't hear about it? If he was Jewish you would have heard about it.

A. It's Khalaili not Khalila B. He has not been sold yet C. It appears in the main headlines on all sports sites D. Don't tweet about what you don't understand

Is media coverage of Anan Khalaili's move to Italy influenced by his identity as an Arab footballer?

Yes

The tweet naturally sparked many reactions, both because Khalaili does appear in the main headlines and receives extensive coverage, and because the tweet is full of errors: Raz misspelled the player's name, who was actually born in Haifa, and the transfer has not yet been completed.

One critic is Dror Kapah of Channel 14, who responded to Mossi Raz: "A. It's Khalaili not Khalila B. He has not been sold yet C. It appears in the main headlines on all sports sites D. Don't tweet about what you don't understand."
