Career

Born in Or Akiva, Levy's professional career began with Maccabi Haifa, where he made his first-team debut in 2002, aged 17. He continued playing for Maccabi Haifa until the middle of 2004/05 season when he moved to Maccabi Tel Aviv for the rest of the season. In 2005, Levy played for Hapoel Kiryat Shmona, but he left in 2006 to play for Maccabi Netanya under the new management of Daniel Jammer and Eyal Berkovic.

Levy left Maccabi Netanya after having disciplinary issues with head coach Eli Guttman. Later that year, he transferred to Hapoel Akko from the Liga Haleumit and signed a 2-year contract with Hapoel Haifa a year later.

On June 26, 2013, Levy returned to Maccabi Netanya, signing a 3-year contract worth $370,000. His return also marked the first time in his career that he was appointed team captain.[1] Levy was injured for the entire 2015–16 season as the club got relegated. On June 30, 2016, Levy signed a one-year contract for the 2016–17 season. Levy agreed to cut close to 70% from his salary in order to help the club get back on its feet.[2][3] On July 29, 2018, Levy was released from his contract with Netanya after on going tension between him and the owner of the club.[4] In 5 years with the club, Levy scored 55 goals and made 47 assists in a total of 142 games in all club competitions. Levy is placed at number 12th in the all time goalscorers of Maccabi Netanya.

In August 2018 Levy returned to Beitar Jerusalem and signed a one-year contract. After a poor half a season with Beitar in which he didn't get along with the manager, Levy moved to Hapoel Katamon Jerusalem on January 17, 2019.

gollark: Well, I personally feel that there's not much of a good ethical case for *forbidding* it, although you probably should try and make sure they actually want to.
gollark: It seems perfectly ethical to me.
gollark: Well, why should you NOT be able to request to be eaten?
gollark: I can't really remember life events very well at all (I use advanced "journal" technology on my computer to help with this, recently), but can remember random facts quite well.
