Peter Bosz will be appointed as Maccabi Tel Aviv FC’s new head coach after the club reached an agreement with Vitesse Arnhem to sign the Dutchman on an 18-month deal.
Bosz, 52, who joins Maccabi from Vitesse where he has coached since 2013, has been coaching in Holland since 2000 at Apeldoorn, De Graafschap, Heracles, a technical director role at Feyenoord, and a second reign at Heracles before joining Vitesse. 
Maccabi’s owner Mitch Goldhar told the club’s official website: “This is a very significant signing for Maccabi Tel Aviv and a key move as we look to continue our overall development of the club and the performance of the squad. We have a clear view of the disciplines and professionalism that the club requires in order to meet our sporting objectives and the coach is key to our success. We firmly believe that Peter’s highly regarded reputation and vision for the game will prove to be a key part of our future plans to improve the club and further our ambitions”.
Sports Director Jordi Cruyff added: “We are delighted to sign Peter Bosz as Maccabi’s head coach. I have been following Peter’s progress for many years and admired the work he has done, a fact which led us to try and sign him more than once”.
Maccabi’s CEO Martin Bain added: “To secure the services of a highly rated European coach such as Peter is not only a major coup but testament to the progress Maccabi has continued to make in recent times.
