The signing of Oskar Gluch at Austrian Red Bull Salzburg is making a lot of noise throughout Europe this evening (Friday).
The 18-year-old Israeli from Maccabi Tel Aviv, aroused a lot of interest throughout Europe and was a candidate for many teams, but finally chose the Austrian team because it is known to develop and improve young players.
Gloch was sold for 7 million euros (the second most expensive transaction ever in the Premier League, after Zahavi's move to China).
In the Spanish "Marca" it was written: "He was one of the most desired young men by the biggest clubs in Europe, and even by Barcelona. However, Oskar Gloch chose Salzburg."
BS described the move: "The Erling Holland effect continues to influence Salzburg. The Israeli star chose the Austrian team over the continental lions."
"Sport" from Catalonia covered the signing: "He was on the lists of Barcelona, but in the end Salzburg was faster and signed him for less than 10 million euros."
It was also written: "The professional management of Barca already gave permission for his signing, but the move was missed."

Christoph Freund, the sporting director of Salzburg:
"We are happy that Oscar decided to come to us even though he had several offers from other clubs. He is a great player who already takes a lot of responsibility on the pitch even though he is very young. "At 18 years old, he will have a new environment for the final.
We talked a lot with him about our style of play, so that he gets enough time to adapt to Salzburg's football"
