In the summer of 2021, he returned to Maccabi Tel Aviv, making 3 Premier League appearances and scoring one goal in a 3–1 win against Hapoel Jerusalem. On January 19, 2022, he extended his contract with Maccabi Tel Aviv and was loaned to Maccabi Petah Tikva until the end of the season. Playing for Maccabi Petah Tikva, he scored 4 goals in 15 appearances, although at the end of the season, the team was relegated to the Liga Leumit.
In the summer of 2022, he was loaned to Apollon Limassol from the Cypriot First Division until the end of the season. On August 3, 2022, he made his debut for the Cypriot team in their 0–4 defeat to Maccabi Haifa during the UEFA Champions League qualifiers. after his loan spell at Apollon Limassol, Shahar returned to Maccabi Tel Aviv and began to secure a much more significant role within the squad. During the 2023/2024 season, under manager Robbie Keane, he showcased great versatility. In addition to his natural position in the midfield, he was frequently deployed as a right-back and delivered impressive performances. That season, he was an active contributor to the team winning the Israeli Premier League championship and the Toto Cup.
