Gloukh's performance has drawn significant praise from Dutch media, with one outlet calling him "the best player in Ajax" and noting his exceptional playmaking abilities. He has now recorded six assists this season, more than any other Israeli player abroad.
Described as an "exceptional creator" by OffsAide, Gloukh was credited with making difficult passes, excellent crosses, and creating both of Ajax's goals. The report highlighted his "three key passes, five dribbles, and eight duels won," underscoring his work rate and ability to connect the midfield and attack.
