"We will not have any explosion with Maccabi Tel Aviv," Maxim Gluch clarifies to me when we start talking yesterday.
He returned to Israel on Tuesday after flying only to the Euro finals accompanied by Oscar Gluch's agent, lawyer Shachar Greenberg, and on the same day he reported as usual to his place of work in Ashdod.
He knows he has a diamond in his hand.
He understands very well that all of Europe is talking about his son, but he remains with his feet firmly on the ground. "
"Maccabi Tel Aviv knows me and Oscar better than anyone and anyone who tries to make negative headlines and write about an explosion on the way is not in the right place. If I wanted an explosion with Maccabi Tel Aviv, I would have done it four years ago when Maccabi Haifa came and offered us a huge contract for a child 14 years old so we can move there. I did nothing with this contract. I did not ask Maccabi Tel Aviv to compare the conditions for me. Every father would take his son in my place at the age of 14, after the offer I received from Maccabi Haifa. But I said I stayed at Maccabi Tel Aviv, "In the club that received the Oscar at the age of 5. We came from the city of Rehovot at the age of 5 to Kiryat Shalom. A quarter of an hour at the Maccabi Sha'arim football school was enough for me to decide that I would take Oscar when he was only 5 to Kiryat Shalom."
"Until the age of 13, I traveled with him to every training session. Rain, sun, rain - I'm on the fence in Kiryat Shalom. Put aside my personal career and settle for a small business I set up with both hands in Ashdod and go after my eldest child. Believe me training is the easy part. Training in Kiryat Shalom until Oscar was 13 and started traveling alone by bus from Rehovot to Holon Junction and from there on foot to Kiryat Shalom, were the easy part of the story. Tel Aviv. And when he grew up Oscar only wanted Maccabi Tel Aviv and I do not forget it. When Maccabi Haifa wanted him before the age of 15, I could put a form and pass without asking anyone and really the offer from Haifa was amazing. I did not run after the money. We stayed because Oscar loved being at Maccabi Tel Aviv and even today he loves Maccabi Tel Aviv. I do not underestimate Maccabi Tel Aviv for a moment. I have always loved the club and I always told Oscar that he is the best club in the country.No one will be able to tell Maccabi Tel Aviv that I am going against them. "

It seems in the last few days that you are aggressively marketing the desire to leave at all costs this summer and there are those in the audience who are already starting to develop an anti towards Oscar because of this bluntness.
"It is clear to me that there will be fans who will be angry that Oscar and I want to advance to Europe, just as there are many fans who say Oscar 'congratulations' and wish him success even if they want him to stay and help Maccabi Tel Aviv regain the championship. You can not please everyone and can not be good with "Everyone. Some will say that Oscar should go out, some will say that Oscar should play with Zehavi and others will say that Oscar should go through a year with Ivica. Whatever is done, the audience will not be satisfied."
Maccabi Tel Aviv sets a very high price tag for him, which may make the transition difficult.
"I think Maccabi Tel Aviv went through a process during the tournament. I think that at the beginning of the tournament or at the end of last season, Maccabi Tel Aviv thought that Oscar should remain at all costs. I feel that today, after what Oscar showed there in the tournament against the best players in the world, Maccabi Tel Aviv understands that he needs to leave. "
What you want?
"I always respect the club that gave everything possible to my child. I never fought with anyone at Maccabi Tel Aviv. They never heard from me. I did not argue or intervene. I did not talk to the coaches or the management. I was never in the offices. I was only with the child. , Standing outside the walls of the club. Now it's clear I want my child to progress. Oscar is ready to go. If he was not ready, I would say that. But I understand football. I myself was a player in Moldova and to this day I play here in Israel in the Veterans League and I know for sure that Oscar Ready to go. "
By the way, in the meantime he should improve his English to make it easier with the players abroad.
"When he moves to Europe, he will learn to speak English very quickly because he will have no choice.
He has no time today for private tutors.
I hardly see the boy.
He is constantly on flights and in tournaments. "
"Maccabi Tel Aviv is talking to the agent."

Has anyone from Maccabi Tel Aviv already spoken to you directly?
"Not with me yet. (The actor's agent) Adv. Shachar Greenberg is talking to them and we will meet with them if there is an offer.
There will be no explosion with Maccabi Tel Aviv.
When an offer comes in, I'll think about what to do and what's best for Oscar.
We will not go anywhere, but we will want to go where we know the coach will let him play and let him develop. "Has
he returned to training alone in the meantime until Maccabi Tel Aviv returns from training camp in the Netherlands?
" No, he can not.
They dislocated his ankle.
His whole foot is completely swollen.
I do not know where he had the strength to continue playing after the Englishman dismantled him.
Now he is at complete rest until Maccabi Tel Aviv returns to Israel. "One
must ask where did you get the name Oscar?
"I always loved that name and said that if I had a son I would call him Oscar. We already called the second son a completely Hebrew name, Eyal. And a daughter who was born third again we went back to a foreigner and gave her the name Ashley. Thai. "
Manages to break away from the hustle and bustle.

How does Oscar manage to disconnect himself from all the hustle and bustle around him and get into every game as usual?
"First of all, he really knows how to disengage from everything and does not read things. Beyond that, he does not care if he plays in the Euro final until the age of 19 or at a harvest school in Rehovot on the highlights where he took the national championship at the age of 14, before moving to Mikve Israel. Oscar came to play "He does not think it's a final. At Katzir School he took a trophy when they won 0: 7 in the final. The coach then came running to me and said to me: 'I have been a youth coach for years. I have never seen a child like that. I have never seen a player like that.'" .
Does he remain modest?
"You will never see Oscar lift his nose."
Did you give him a male Soviet education for the one you came from Moldova?
"Soviet education is more than Soviet. What Oscar went through no child in the country went through. He succeeds because he is cool. He knows how to disengage and he has confidence. We have built it over the years."
Who was he in the room with in the tournament?
"With Logsi. They are not members of the team because Logsi from Maccabi Petah Tikva. I remember them as little children. They were both outstanding players at a young age."
"Goldhaar will benefit, too."

What will happen after Maccabi Tel Aviv returns from the Netherlands?
"What do you mean? Oscar will return to training at Maccabi Tel Aviv. That's clear."
What is the real price that Maccabi Tel Aviv can get for it?
"Listen, if Oscar was Argentine or Portuguese they could have asked for and would also get 30 million euros. They threw away a sum of 10 million euros and I don't think they will get that an Israeli Oscar, but 5 to 6 million euros can get."
And sell?
"Mitch Goldhaar is a businessman. He does not come now and say he will keep him in force. Mitch understands that he will also make a profit on future deals."
They will keep percentages for themselves for sure.
"Obviously. I am sure that Mitch will not do any damage or leave him in force. If a fair offer comes, I am sure that Maccabi will not stand in our way. Oscar is due to leave."
When he travels abroad, will he be there all alone?
"If need be, I will leave work and travel with him."
The man who gave him the chance.

If not a good offer for Maccabi Tel Aviv?
"Then he will stay at Maccabi Tel Aviv. There is no problem. Maccabi Tel Aviv is the best club in the country and they play in Europe. It will also develop here. If I were against Maccabi, I would have taken him a long time ago. The whole management knows who I am. I am not one to do "A mess and not looking to mow. I have been with Maccabi Tel Aviv for 13 years and I am very satisfied until now."
He has an Oscar piece where he bounces the ball a little with his left foot and then gives the kick with his right foot and then the ball gets powerful.
Is it intentional?
"With Oscar, everything is intentional. Oscar knows exactly what he is doing. Oscar is looking three moves ahead. Oscar is shooting the pitch in his head all the time. He knows exactly what he wants from himself in each move. It is not that he comes out like that by chance. Everything is intentional."
Mladen Krestic said here in an interview yesterday that he is very happy to see that the Oscar selection has proven itself.
"I read the interview and was happy to see that he was talking about Oscar like that. I was very passionate about Krastich. He was a very great mentor for Oscar. No Israeli coach would do for Oscar what Krastich did. Krastich did not tell anyone and went with what he saw. He opened. "Oscar opened the doors. Oscar thanked him at the end when he left."
By the way, we in the media call him Gluch with the score of a full dreamer, and it was the Serbs, led by Krestajic, who called him Gluch with the Whistling movement.
"It was the Serbs who called him exactly as he should be called."
The fact that he gambled on it, prevented him from moving to a team in the National League.
"We would not move to the national league. Oscar would go straight to the seniors anyway. I said all the way through that he would move from youth to seniors. At 16 he played in a training game with Patrick Van Leven in a training game against Hapoel Kfar Saba and he was the best on the field and also there goal. Everyone was in the market from his performance in that game.
