I feel that i can still contribute a lot and i want to thank coach Blatt and the administration of the club for the confidence they showed to me from the beginning of the negotiations. My goal was to stay at the highest level and i believe that Maccabi has the history, the name and the roster to give me this ability. I will do whatever i can to help the team achieve its goals. After my career in Olympiakos and CSKA all i wanted was to continue doing what i love in an equally big club".
