Paris Saint-Germain is in talks with Ajax to secure the services of winger Mika Godts. The 21-year-old Belgian stood out last season, scoring 17 goals and providing 13 assists in 34 matches in the Eredivisie, even in a difficult year for the Amsterdam team, which finished fifth with the lowest points total since 1962, just 56. Thanks to this result, Ajax secured a spot in the play-offs of the UEFA Conference League.
According to well-known journalist Fabrizio Romano, the current UEFA Champions League champions view Godts as a viable option, alongside young Maghnes Akliouche from Monaco, who is set to join the Parisians. PSG's pursuit of reinforcements indicates an intention to strengthen the squad, particularly in the winger position.
In statements to Ziggo Sport, Godts stated that there are no indications he is leaving Ajax at this time, emphasizing that the situation within the team is improving and that he wants to win with the club. “I'm here. Last season went really well for me. It would be very selfish of me to be happy with that, because we finished fifth and played in the playoffs,” said the player. Godts also expressed his ambition to fight for the title next season, believing in the team's capabilities: “I hope to be in the title race, and I feel we can do it as a team. Especially given the environment we are in now. With the structure that is in place.”
When asked what would happen if an offer from another club arose, Godts calmly replied: “We'll see then. At the moment, nothing is happening, and I am really happy here at the Johan Cruyff ArenA.” This commitment to Ajax and his desire to remain with the team are signs that Godts is focused on contributing to the club's success, even amid approaches from PSG.
Since joining Ajax from Gent in January 2023, Godts has played 113 matches, scoring 25 goals and providing 23 assists. His development and promising performance make him one of the young talents to watch next season, regardless of the immediate future regarding a potential transfer to Paris. The unfolding of this situation promises to bring news in the coming days as the transfer market intensifies.
