[edit] Stint in Israel

Before arriving in Israel, a lot of media attention was paid to Wescley since he was signing with Maccabi Haifa and was expected to be their leader for the future. Wescley had the credentials especially since he was captain of the Brazilian olympic team but was unable to acclimate to Israeli culture and ended leaving after a mediocre first season.
