Belgian Winger Completes €55m Move
Paris Saint-Germain have officially confirmed the signing of Mika Godts from Ajax, closing a deal worth €45 million plus €10 million in add-ons. The Belgian winger has signed a five-year contract, running until 2031, becoming the reigning double European champions’ latest attacking addition.
Notably, this transfer completes what has been a whirlwind week for PSG’s recruitment team. Godts arrives just a day after Ferran Torres joined from Barcelona, giving Luis Enrique two fresh attacking options within 48 hours. Transfer specialist Fabrizio Romano confirmed all documents had been signed and the medical completed, closing negotiations that had progressed steadily since late July.
Godts’ rise through Dutch football has been genuinely remarkable. Having come through the academies of Anderlecht and Genk, he joined Ajax back in 2023 for a modest €1 million fee. Since then, he’s registered 115 appearances for the Amsterdam club, scoring 26 goals and providing 28 assists. Last season alone, he found the net 32 times across all competitions, becoming just the third Ajax player since 2010-11 to combine 15 goals and 15 assists in a single campaign.
Speaking after completing the move, Godts didn’t hide his excitement. “I feel incredibly proud to be joining one of the best clubs in the world,” he told PSG’s official website, capping off a deal that had been quietly progressing for weeks.
Reshaping The Left Wing Amid Barcola Uncertainty
This signing carries clear tactical logic, too. PSG have strengthened their wide attacking positions following persistent reports suggesting Bradley Barcola could depart for Liverpool before deadline day. Godts provides genuine depth alongside Khvicha Kvaratskhelia on the left flank, regardless of how Barcola’s situation ultimately resolves.
Interestingly, Godts arrives with limited senior international experience. He made his Belgium debut only in March and, despite that milestone, failed to earn selection for this summer’s World Cup squad. That relative freshness, sporting director Luis Campos reportedly believes, gives him considerably more rest heading into a demanding season than most of his new teammates.
For Ajax, losing their standout performer represents a considerable blow, even with the sizeable fee softening that impact. Godts leaves having firmly established himself as one of Dutch football’s brightest young talents, according to Get French Football News, ahead of what promises to be a demanding new chapter in Paris.
