First get the value from glob():
$value = "foo*";
@matches = glob $value;
Then work with the values in @matches.

I am trying to cd into a directory referenced by a value in a list with
wildcards like shell command
ls test* or cd test*
however nothing seems to work, I have tried amongst others
$dir9= system("ls $dir1.*\$");
opendir(DIRLIST,".");
$dir9=grep$dir1.*\$, readdir DIRLIST
