Yagil Biton has been loaned out to Bnei Yehuda until the end of the season
Maccabi Tel Aviv's Yagil Biton has joined his teammates Rafi Dahan and Roslan Bresky at Bnei Yehuda after the two clubs agreed a loan deal that will see defender Biton in an orange jersey until the end of the season.
The 20 year old Biton came up through Maccabi's youth division and played in various national youth squads in Israel. In his second season he was the lynchpin in the defence of the side that won the double in an extraordinary season for the youth team. The 2011/12 season also saw Biton open in a Maccabi "Shachar" jersey as one of three eligible over-age players, often appearing as the team's captain. At the same time he earned a place in the regular first team squad, making his maiden league appearance in the very last match of the season, playing the whole 90 minutes in Maccabi Tel Aviv's 3-2 win over Ironi Kiryat Shmona. This season he has appeared in a league match against Ashdod FC and two Toto league cup matches against Maccabi Netanya and Hapoel Haifa.
