Rami Gershon, born 12 August 1988 (age 37), is an Israeli central defender with Maccabi Haifa. His European career took him through Belgium before he came into Celticโs orbit, with Standard Liege the club he left when he joined Celtic in January 2013.
His most productive league season came earlier, at Kortrijk in 2010-11, when he made 27 appearances and scored once. That gives a fair sense of the player: primarily a defender, not a headline act, but one who had already built a solid professional base before his move to Glasgow.
Gershonโs Celtic spell was a relatively brief chapter rather than the centre of his career. He arrived midway through the 2012-13 season from Standard Liege, adding defensive cover at a time when the squad had plenty else going on.
He later continued his career with Maccabi Haifa, where he has been listed primarily as a central defender. His career has been a steady one across Israel, Belgium and Scotland, with Celtic forming a short but notable stop along the way.
