Mika Godts—a 21-year-old forward (primarily a left winger) for Ajax Amsterdam (under contract until 2029) and the Belgian national team, who enjoyed an excellent season—has been linked to Paris Saint-Germain since Friday evening. Jordi Cruijff, the Dutch club’s technical director, addressed the rumors in comments to De Telegraaf.
“No club has made an offer for Godts yet.”
“I won’t comment on figures anyway, and for the moment, no club has made an offer for Godts.
We are very pleased with Mika. Not just with his goals and assists, but also with his professional attitude at the club.
He has a desire to improve every day. In reality, we can’t do without him this season, because we want to win titles and trophies.
“He isn’t for sale—or at least, it would be very difficult to pry him away.”
Ultimately, players like Godts will leave, but at the right time and for the right price. We want to keep him in Amsterdam for at least another year. He isn’t for sale—or at least, it would be very difficult to pry him away.” (Quotes via Goal).
After a wave of optimism regarding a quick transfer of Godts to PSG, things have cooled off a bit, serving as a reminder that negotiations between the two clubs are still required. It is nothing insurmountable, but discussions are still on the table. However, it makes sense for Ajax to reiterate that they won’t be giving him away for free; that is simply part of the negotiation process.
An agreement is by no means guaranteed; PSG isn’t pushing aggressively, and the Dutch club isn’t under contract-related pressure. We will have to wait and see how things develop over the coming days to gain more certainty. After all, Godts didn’t meet Luis Campos in Porto for nothing.
