Hemed provides his first words as a Charlton player


After weeks of unnecessary waiting, former Brighton striker Tomer Hemed is now officially a Charlton Athletic player.

 

He comes in with good reviews from Brighton fans and I have also seen some of them say they need to move on from what they were in the Championship, so looks like we have got a great player on our hands.

Hemed spoke with the club’s website as his transfer finally got confirmed by the EFL.

“I am very happy to be here, I am excited to be here and start the season with the team. I’ve already missed a few games, so I can’t wait for the next one and to be involved and be a part of the rest of the season.

 

“They’ve brought me here to score goals first of all, so obviously I will do my best every game to help the team. If it’s to score goals or give assists in any way, just to help the team to get the points and achieve the targets for this season.”

Sounds like he is a hard worker and that is what Charlton thrive off, it’s how we win games by not giving up and playing to the whistle.

 

The Israeli international also spoke about his intentions of passing on his knowledge to the younger players which is always something we love to see here in SE7.

“It’s amazing for us, it’s something that we didn’t know would happen from the start, then we started to hear about it and we started to think about going together from Brighton to here.

“In Brighton they know the story about us. As kids, we played together in Israel with Maccabi Haifa’s youth team. So, for us it’s amazing to be here together and keep going together and I’m sure that both of us will do our best for the team.”

Sounds like Hemed and Kayal have a great partnership and I certainly hope it shines at The Valley because these two could really be something special in a Charlton shirt.
