Napoli are hoping that Ajax manage to sell Mika Godts to Paris Saint-Germain, because there are Dutch reports their first choice to replace him is outcast Noa Lang.

According to Voetbal International , Ajax are looking for a replacement and their first choice is Lang.

(Photo by Francesco Pecoraro/Getty Images) This would be a boon for the Partenopei, who do not see the Dutch international as part of their plans going forward.

The 27-year-old was a big investment at €25m from PSV Eindhoven last summer, but struggled to make an impact and had real problems getting along with coach Antonio Conte.

He was loaned out to Galatasaray for €2m in January , and now Napoli are trying to find him a new club, as Max Allegri isn’t too interested in revitalising him either.

Ajax would be a good step for Lang, who spent time in their youth academy and remained on their books until the 2021 sale to Club Brugge for €6m.

Napoli would be more than content just to not make a loss on the sale at this point.

What happened

According to reports, Ajax have identified Napoli's Noa Lang as their top transfer target in the event that promising winger Mika Godts completes a move to Paris Saint-Germain. Lang has struggled for playing time at Napoli since joining the club and is available for transfer. The situation creates a potential swap-like dynamic in the market, with Ajax preparing a succession plan contingent on Godts's exit. PSG have been linked with Godts as they look to strengthen their attacking options.

Chance analysis

This is a contingent transfer story linking three clubs across two of Europe's major leagues. Lang's lack of minutes at Napoli makes a move logical, while Godts represents one of Ajax's most valuable emerging assets. If both moves materialize, it would represent significant squad reshaping for Ajax's attack and free up space in Napoli's wide positions. The story remains speculative pending concrete negotiations.

Impact

Potential reshaping of Ajax and Napoli attacking lines if both transfers proceed, with Lang gaining a path back to regular football.
