Maxim, the father of striker Oscar Gloukh, gave an interview to Israeli television station \u201cFive on Air,\u201d revealing a behind-the-scenes look at the negotiations that led to his son\u2019s move to Ajax. <\/p>\n
Gloukh had been a target of Roma in recent weeks but ultimately chose to go to Amsterdam.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe plan is to reach one of the top five leagues via the Dutch league first. Oscar needs to take his time because he\u2019s still young. He\u2019s 21 and can play two or three years in the Eredivisie before making the big leap.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cAjax was already in contact with us when he played for Maccabi, and we talked for a year. His dream was to go there, and now it\u2019s come true; it\u2019s the best choice for him.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cRoma\u2019s offer was 2.5 times higher than Ajax\u2019s, as were the offers from other clubs. But we thought about the professional aspect.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Maxim, the father of striker Oscar Gloukh, gave an interview to Israeli television station \u201cFive on Air,\u201d revealing…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":35757,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[440],"tags":[49,48,561,82],"class_list":["post-35756","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-soccer","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-soccer","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/35756","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=35756"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/35756\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/35757"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=35756"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=35756"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=35756"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
