The Israeli winger spent just two and a half seasons at the club, contributing with 29 goals and 22 assists.

At Charlotte, he’s remained among the goals, scoring three in his first nine matches.

Abada has quickly risen to become the club’s highest-paid player. His annual salary of €2.3 million (£1.81 million), as reported by The Herald, not only sets a new high for Charlotte FC but also highlights the lucrative nature of his new chapter in the United States.

This financial package includes potential bonuses and loyalty payments, potentially increasing his earnings to about $2.5 million (£1.971 million) annually.

According to Salary Sport, Liel Abada was on £17,000 a week at Celtic, that’s £884,000 a year.

Celtic will need to replace Abada this summer, though. They brought Kuhn in the January window, and has looked good so far, but when you look past him there’s not much depth on the right wing.
