Mika Godts Transfer from Ajax to Arsenal
Arsenal are growing in confidence over the potential signing of Mika Godts. The player is very open to leaving Ajax for Arsenal this summer, and it should be fairly straightforward for the two parties to reach an agreement on personal terms as Godts is unlikely to have massive wage demands. Ajax want €75m (£65m) to sell Godts, though that price will drop if the club fails to qualify for European competition. In February, his agent, Niels De Jonck, said that Godts, together with Youri Baas, should be Ajax’s next mega-transfer. De Jonck stated that the financial need to sell has disappeared in Amsterdam, but they would not refuse a significant amount.
