Maccabi Tel Aviv wants David Blatt to return and they are offering him a three year deal that might be the best he can get in Europe after leaving Darussafaka Dogus.

With everything chaning in the Turkish team, Blatt is leaving Istanbul and while he is one of the top names available for everyone looking for a coach, very few teams can afford him and lure him.

Maccabi Tel Aviv, where he won the EuroLeague title back in 2014 is one of his possible destinations and the Israeli club has already made him a more than interesting offer.

Maccabi is also hoping to get a quick answer, in order to avoid losing him to any other team and also in order for him to start planning for next season. However, Blatt will have to make a discount for Maccabi, since his salary was 1,7 m. euros per season in Darussafaka and he will probably wait for any offers from the NBA before making his final decision.
