Bibras Natcho

22-year-old Israeli starlet Bibras Natcho of Hapoel Tel Aviv has agreed terms with Russian champions Rubin Kazan.

Hapoel Tel Aviv, which are set to play Kazan in the next round of the UEFA Europa League, are negotiating with the Russian side hoping to receive compensation for their promising midfielder, whose contract runs out at the end of the season.

The Israeli press reported in the last couple of days that Hapoel responded to the Russian interest in the player with an imaginary demand of 7.5 million Euros.

Now it seems that the Israeli side have realized that Natcho is indeed close to joining the Russian team and is interested in the move, and are trying to close the deal with the biggest compensation possible.

Natcho is a central midfielder who can act both as an offensive and defensive midfielder. He put in some impressive performances for Hapoel in European competition and has recorded 10 assists and two goals in 20 appearances this season for his side.
