The upcoming frontline of Maccabi: Radulija, Freeland, Macvan and Kadir

Just one day has passed since the end of the Yellow's season, and the team from Tel-Aviv are almost done with there fron line. Stephane Lasme is leaving the team for sure while Do'r Fischer is on his way out too.
Miroslav Radulicja has already signed in Nokia Arena and will be announced soon. Raduljica has agreed with Maccabi way earlier, at the middle of the season, when the Yellows tried to pick him up as an addition to their Playoff struggles in the Euroleague. According to these reports, Raduljica was at the distance of a ink stamp from playing in Tel Aviv these season already, but the high fee FMP wanted for his one-year-contract was ridiculously high, a fact that kept him out of Tel Aviv till now.
One who may join Radulija is Milan Macvan, the young talented forward of Hemofram , who already accepted to play for the Yellow's and Maccabi is trying to finish the negotiations against Hemofram who wants Maccabi to pay 500K euro feec, while Maccabi wishes to pay 400K dollars. The deal is supposed to be closed next week.
Maccabi is also very interested in the British Joel Freeland, who is already negotiating with the team from Tel Aviv. Freeland has a contract for next year with a 300K release clause that Maccabi is about to pay, if and when the negotiations will be done.
Elishay Kadir, who just took the championship from the yellow hands with Galil, is also wanted by Maccabi. His arrival may happen soon after Oded Katash will sign as the team assistant alongside Pini Gershon. Sharon Drucker, current Maccabi assistant coach, will probably look to try his luck in Europe.
In case Maccabi will have problems signing Macvan or Freeland, the alternatives are Pops Menash Bonsu, the british Power-Forward of Cska Moscow. Another alternatives are Robert Archibald and Richard Hendrix.
