Liverpool require big changes on the wings ahead of the summer transfer window.
Mohamed Salah is LEAVING the club having reached an agreement to rip up his £400k per week contract a year early. And Federico Chiesa – the reserve right winger – is likely to join the Egyptian King on the exit ramp.

On the other side we could see an improvement sought for Cody Gakpo while Arne Slot has been reluctant to offer Rio Ngumoha significant game time.
And while we have seen wingers such as Yan Diomande and Bradley Barcola linked with an Anfield arrival a new name has now emerged on the radar.
Mika Godts scores sensational goal
A young Belgian tearing up the Eredivisie is the latest name in fashion for a host of Premier League and European clubs – with Liverpool right in the frame to sign him.
Mika Godts, 20, has established himself as Ajax’s MVP during the current season – scoring 16 goals and delivering 11 assists in the Dutch top flight.

Accordingly he is on the radar of all the major Premier League teams with a report in TEAMtalk claiming several were present over the weekend when Godts put on quite the show.
Godts scored what will perhaps turn out to be a Puskas award-winning effort in a league game against NAC – with Arsenal and Chelsea recruiters in attendance among others.
Mika Godts puts on a show
Although Liverpool were not believed to be in the stadium for the tie – they “appreciate” the Belgium international per the report.
“Aston Villa, Newcastle United and Leeds United were also among the Premier League clubs keeping a close eye on proceedings, while long-term admirers Tottenham Hotspur remain firmly in the picture,” the report reads.

“Liverpool and Manchester United are also known to appreciate Godts.
“Barcelona, Atletico Madrid and RB Leipzig are also monitoring his progress as Ajax prepare for what looks set to be their next major sale.”
Mika Godts: Situation summary
Mika Godts is a 20‑year‑old Belgian winger who has exploded from prospect to undisputed starter at Ajax over the past 18 months.
A left‑sided, right‑footed forward, he plays high and narrow from the wing, constantly looking to attack the box rather than just hold width.
On the pitch he’s a high‑usage attacker: lots of touches in the final third, aggressive shot volume and double‑digit goal contributions, with 2025‑26 seeing him lead the Eredivisie for combined goals and assists.

His game is built on sharp changes of direction, quick one‑twos and a calmness in front of goal that belies his age, though his off‑ball intensity is still a work in progress.
