PSG sees its €55 m bet wobble amid lack of minutes

Paris spent €55 million to sign the Belgian Mika Godts, but the young striker has only accumulated 144 minutes in six matches, with no starts. This sparing usage already raises questions about the relevance of this investment within PSG.

Limited playing time

He has played 144 minutes spread over six matches, never starting. These brief appearances limit his impact and prevent him from establishing a regular playing rhythm.

Mika Godts's first steps at PSG are trickling in, each appearance spaced out. This situation starkly contrasts with the expectations tied to his price.

Doubts about his future at Paris

The capital's club has invested €55 million to make the former Ajax player one of its main offensive bets. Such a commitment makes every minute of play all the more scrutinized.

A European scout noted that “There are moments when Godts is overwhelmed by the match, when you feel he is less impactful. Today his game is less oriented towards the goal and efficiency.” This analysis shows an immediate loss of impact.

The same observer compared Godts's situation to that of Gonçalo Ramos, recalling that “Gonçalo Ramos is a European‑level number 9 and he could not express himself sustainably at Paris. Is Godts safe from this type of scenario? I’m not sure…”. This comparison fuels doubt about his future role.

At €55 million, expectations remain high and the staff will soon have to decide whether to give him a start. Godts will need to make the most of his next appearances to be more decisive.

His adaptation is only beginning, but the question of his role in the Paris hierarchy is already raised. Limited playing time remains the main obstacle to his establishment.
