Stuttgart could re-enter race for Ajax wide man Godts

The Belgian winger’s move to Baden-Württemberg never materialized as other European interest grew in pace.

VfB Stuttgart’s attempts to acquire Mika Godts during the recent winter transfer window appear to have been unsuccessful.

According to Dutch source Voetbal International, the Ajax winger received numerous inquiries from around Europe. 

These included not only VfB Stuttgart, but also Premier League side Arsenal, La Liga’s Barcelona with Roma and Napoli from Serie A.

Ajax will not consider a sale until summer at the earliest. Godts is having a fantastic season so far with 10 goals and 7 assists in the Eredivisie.

If the Belgian U-19 international’s development continues at this pace, the Dutch club will likely not be able to retain him for much longer. 

However, due to his contract running until 2029, the current fourth-placed team is in a comfortable negotiating position.

A transfer fee of €15million was recently circulating, but significantly increased since if Stuttgart re-enter the race next summer.
