Personal life


Katan was born in Kiryat Ata, Israel, and is Jewish.[2]


Club career


In December 2005, Katan signed a four-year contract with West Ham United, where he joined up with Israeli international teammate Yossi Benayoun.[3] The transfer, which was officially completed during the January 2006 transfer window, involved a cut-price fee of £100,000, as Katan had only six months left on his Maccabi contract.[4] He made eight appearances, including six from the bench, for West Ham.[5][6]

At the end of the 2005–06 season, Katan moved back to Maccabi Haifa in a loan deal, with a view to a permanent move,[7] after Alan Pardew reportedly told him he was no longer in his plans.[8] He returned to Israel and made his loan deal permanent by signing a new four-year deal with Haifa.

After 25 years in Maccabi Haifa, on 19 June 2014, Katan decided to retire from active playing.[9] On 5 April 2015, a farewell ceremony for Katan was held at the Sammy Ofer Stadium on which both Maccabi Haifa's chairman Ya'akov Shahar and Katan led a speech and the fans held a giant flag with Katan's pictures.[citation needed]
