Liverpool appear to have sprung into life in the transfer market given the groundswell of reports linking the Reds with several players over the last few days. Now, links to Ajax star forward Mika Godts are emerging, but pursuing the Belgian would put any chance of signing Bradley Barcola at risk.

Liverpool “following” Mika Godts with interest despite PSG interest According to journalist Sebastien Vidal, Liverpool are keeping a close eye on Godts despite PSG being advanced in their pursuit of the Ajax star. “Liverpool is also following the file.” It doesn’t make sense for Liverpool to hijack Godts signing given ongoing talks with PSG for Bradley Barcola As exciting a talent as Godts is, it would be destructive to the ongoing talks for Bradley Barcola for Liverpool to swoop in and sign one of his replacements.

But to sign Godts, Liverpool would need to be prepared to risk the goodwill that exists between PSG and Liverpool executives, which would put any chance of reducing the £145m asking price that the Parisians are seeking for Barcola. Michael first started supporting Liverpool after Istanbul in 2006.
