Israel forward Dabbur joins Salzburg from Grasshoppers

ZURICH (AP) - Swiss club Grasshoppers says Israel forward Munas Dabbur will leave to sign a five-year contract with Austrian champion Salzburg.

Dabbur scored 48 goals in 89 matches for Grasshoppers. He is the top scorer in the Swiss league this season with 18 goals for the third-place team.

The move reunites Dabbur, who turns 24 on Saturday, with Salzburg coach Oscar Garcia. They previously worked together at Maccabi Tel Aviv.

Salzburg has sealed its third straight Austrian title to enter the second qualifying round of the Champions League.
