Ihab Abu Alshikh will depart tomorrow (Tuesday) with MS Ashdod for the training camp in order to sign with the team. Alshikh played last season at Hapoel Ra'anana and scored seven goals. He also added three goals in the Toto Cup. Six years ago he was considered a big prospect and Maccabi Haifa signed him. Later he played for Maccabi Petah Tikva and Maccabi Netanya but in recent seasons he has been in the National League. He played for Kafr Qasim and as mentioned last season for Hapoel Ra'anana. The 26-year-old Alshikh can play on the right wing. He will try to impress the professional staff and sign with Ashdod.

Two additional foreigners will join the camp beyond the three expected. These are Hayford Bohan and Edmund Asante. If one of them demonstrates high ability in the camp he may take the place of one of the other foreigners. If the team plays in the National League the three foreigners expected to play for it currently are defender Ibrahim Diakite, midfielder Victor Ochayi and striker Ebenezer Mmamata. As a reminder Ashdod has so far signed Dor Micha, Osama Halaila, Maxim Grechkin, Ran Vaturi and goalkeeper Razi Abu Hamdan.
