The Transfer Saga Continues
Paris Saint-Germain initially submitted a bid for Mika Godts, offering Ajax €40 million plus €5 million in bonuses. However, the Amsterdam club rejected the bid, deeming it too low. The exact amount Ajax is seeking for the transfer remains unknown, but earlier reports suggested a total transfer fee of between €60-65 million.
Mendes on Board
Jorge Mendes, a well-known and respected agent, has been brought in to help facilitate the transfer. He will work on a no-cure-no-pay basis, meaning he will only receive payment if Paris Saint-Germain meets the desired transfer fee. This approach is not new for Mendes, who has previously worked with AZ and NEC on similar deals. His involvement in the transfer is a significant development, as it suggests that Ajax is serious about securing a good deal for Mika Godts.
A Familiar Face
Mendes' involvement in the transfer is not the first time he has been linked to Ajax. The club previously worked with him on the transfer of Kees Smit, who is still a player at the AFAS Stadion. NEC also enlisted Mendes' help in selling Kodai Sano to PSV, although it is unclear if he was involved in the deal. Mendes' experience and reputation make him an ideal candidate to help Ajax navigate the complex world of transfer negotiations.
The Stakes are High
The transfer of Mika Godts is a significant one for Ajax, and the club is likely to be keen to secure a good deal. With Mendes on board, it will be interesting to see if Paris Saint-Germain is willing to meet Ajax's demands and complete the transfer. The involvement of a top agent like Mendes suggests that Ajax is serious about securing a good deal for Mika Godts, and fans will be eagerly watching to see how the situation develops.
