Yonatan Cohen (Hebrew: יונתן כהן‬; born 29 June 1996) is an Israeli footballer. He currently plays for Bnei Yehuda, on loan from Maccabi Tel Aviv.[1]

Career

Cohen began playing youth football for Maccabi Tel Aviv before going on loans to Beitar Tel Aviv Ramla and Bnei Yehuda. Then-manager Arik Benado brought Cohen to Bnei Yehuda, where he would made his debut in the Israeli Premier League.[2] Cohen became an important player for Bnei Yehuda during the 2016–17 season, relegating previously established midfielders Pedro Joaquín Galván and Amir Agayev to the bench.[3]
