Former Ajax player and commentator Kenneth Perez has sharply criticized the club's transfer policy and Israeli midfielder Oskar Gloch following a 1-1 draw with Nijmegen that further distanced Ajax from the league leaders. During the program "Dit was het Weekend," highlights showed Gloch failing to convert several scoring opportunities. He was substituted in the 60th minute and visibly expressed his disappointment. Ajax coach Michel reacted to Gloch's missed chances, stating, "Oskar, two goals! You could have scored two goals!" Perez questioned Gloch's suitability for Ajax, remarking, "It's amusing to see all this fuss, all this attention around him. But in the end, nothing comes of it. His shots are like a child's." Perez also criticized the decision to sign Gloch for an estimated 11 to 12 million euros, or possibly more. He extended his criticism to other signings, questioning the logic behind acquiring Gloch and Marcus Leonardo for a combined 20 million euros, given the increasing physicality and speed in modern football.
