Club career

Arel was born in Kiryat Haim, Haifa. He finished his formation with Hapoel Haifa. On 23 January 2009 he made his senior debut, coming on as a late substitute in a 1–0 away win against Maccabi Ironi Kiryat Ata.[1]

On 22 August 2009 Arel made his Premier League debut, again from the bench in a 2–1 success at Maccabi Netanya; he also scored the winner in the 80th minute.[2] He was regularly used during the following four full seasons, with his side always avoiding relegation.

On 22 July 2013 Arel signed a four-year deal with fellow league team Hapoel Be'er Sheva.[3] Regularly used during his first season, he lost his space in his second, being loaned to Hapoel Petah Tikva in January 2015.

On 1 August 2015, already as a free agent, Arel joined Gimnàstic de Tarragona, signing a two-year deal with the club after impressing on a trial.[4] On 1 February of the following year, after being rarely used, he rescinded his link.

gollark: Tradition is *a* reason to think something might be better, but a fairly weak one, since the people of the past had rather different values, and not tools like computer simulations or more recent mathematical analyses of voting systems.
gollark: Also, yes, the context is quite different so reasons from then may not apply.
gollark: It's also possible that more complex systems may have been impractical before computers came along, although that doesn't apply to, say, approval voting.
gollark: First-past-the-post is the simplest and most obvious thing you're likely to imagine if you want people to "vote for things", and it's entirely possible people didn't look too hard.
gollark: I don't know if the people designing electoral systems actually did think of voting systems which are popular now and discard them, but it's not *that* much of a reason to not adopt new ones.
