About the player
Niv Gabai came through Maccabi Haifa's youth academy after spells with the youth sides of Maccabi Netanya, where he scored 25 goals in a single season, and Maccabi Petah Tikva. He made eight appearances in the Ligat Ha'Al for Maccabi Haifa in 2025/2026, scored twice and added an assist. He was sent on as a substitute in the 85th minute against Maccabi Tel Aviv, scoring in the 88th as Haifa won 4-1.
In July 2026 Gabai signed a contract extension with Maccabi Haifa running to 2029. In the same month, however, he was sent out on loan to Ironi Kiryat Shmona for the 2026/2027 season, joining the club's training camp on 15 July 2026 after being granted special permission by the military authorities to do so.
Gabai has also featured for Israel at Under-21 level, called up for squads facing Slovenia and Norway, though he has yet to add senior international caps to his name.
