Avram Grant is one of the most popular and richest Football Manager who was born on February 6, 1955 in Petah Tikva, Israel. As of June 1, 2023, Avram Grant has a net worth approximately $5 Million. The following season Grant moved to coach Maccabi Tel Aviv winning Liga Leumit (then the top division) in his first season with them, with a 13-point advantage over the second place team. Maccabi Tel Aviv lost out closely in the final of the Israeli Cup and was thus denied a historic double. The cup was won by Maccabi Tel Aviv under Grant’s control, however, in 1994, followed with another championship in 1995.
Avraham Granat was born in Petah Tikva, Israel. His father, Meir Granat, was born into a firmly Orthodox Jewish family in Mława, Poland. Meir’s family fled to the Soviet Union in 1941, during the Holocaust; there they were exiled to Kolyma, Siberia, where most of the family died. In a 2008 interview his father recalled burying his grandfather, Avraham Granat—after whom Grant was named—with his own hands. After being repatriated to Poland after the war’s end in 1945, Meir emigrated to the British Mandate of Palestine in violation of the policy of that time, and was arrested and detained in Cyprus. He ultimately settled in Petah Tikva, where he and Grant’s mother Aliza Nisan, an Iraqi-Jewish immigrant to Israel, met.
Grant’s professional coaching career started at age 18, in 1972, as youth coach of his home-town team, Hapoel Petah Tikva. In 1986, after a 14-year spell in this job, he was promoted to first team coach, leading the club to two Toto Cup victories, in 1990 and 1991, thus bringing Hapoel Petah Tikva back to the top of Israeli football after nearly 25 years. During this era Petah Tikva fought regularly for the championship against Shlomo Scharf’s Maccabi Haifa. In his last season in Petah Tikva, Grant lost both the championship and the Israel State Cup within 3 days to Maccabi Haifa, in a chain of events which is commonly known in Israel as “the Double robbery”. The next year the club won its first major title in 30 years, by winning its second-ever Israeli Cup.
Grant shortened his surname from Granat in the late 1980s. He was married to Israeli television personality Tzufit Grant. They have a son and a daughter. The couple have announced they split up in September 2014.
