Israeli giants Hapoel Tel Aviv have joined the race to sign Ghana captain John Mensah, who is a free agent now, after he parted ways with Olympique Lyonnais this summer. Goal.com Ghana can confirm that Black Stars defender John Paintsil is the brain behind as he is convincing the Europa League campaigners to sign the 29-year-old because he thinks Mensah will help the club so well as they seeks to attain European glory. Paintsil returned to The Red Demons, a club he left six years ago for England, and was very instrumental as they won their first Europa League qualifying game by 3-1 and he is resolute that with the vast experience of Mensah he can be a hit in Israel. So far clubs including Trabsonspor and Rangers have all expressed interest in signing the �Rock of Gibraltar� and his agents Fabien Piveteau will have to take a critical look at the offers, especially with teams like The Workers joining.
