Harmony Ikande Hands In Transfer Request After Harassment From Coach

The relationship between Harmony Ikande and Hapoel Tel Aviv coach, Asi Domb, is far from cordial, so much so that the former Nigeria youth international has handed in a transfer request.

According to information from one.co.il, Ikande has claimed that he has been humiliated by the coach because he refused playing as a defender, a deviation from his midfield responsibilities.

The central midfielder is hoping to join a new team in January, and he has become so desperate that he is even willing to return to Nigeria should he fail to attract the attention of a club in Europe.

Hapoel Tel Aviv have moved quickly to dispel rumors of his imminent departure, saying he has a valid contract with the Reds.

“Harmony is a player under contract and the club exclusively decides for him. If there is something to announce we will announce,”  Hapoel Tel Aviv said in a statement.

A product of the youth team of AC Milan, Harmony Ikande has also appeared for teams in Ukraine and Hungary.
