Born in Leuven and already recognised by collectors and fans, Mika Godts combines youth pedigree with early senior milestones, a narrative that Walkouts references when authenticating memorabilia. A creative wide player by trade, he first emerged through established Belgian youth systems before making the step to senior football, and his story is readily traceable through match dates and club records that matter to provenance for signed shirts and authenticated autographs.
Godts began his development at Anderlecht, moving to the youth ranks of Genk where he progressed into the reserve side. In the first half of the 2022 to 2023 season he featured prominently for Jong Genk, recording 19 appearances and 7 goals, a run of form that coincided with his decision not to renew his contract and that attracted interest abroad.
On 31 January 2023 he completed a move to Ajax, joining on a contract that marked the start of his career in the Netherlands. He integrated initially with Jong Ajax and marked his debut with a goal on 20 February 2023 in a 4-2 win against MVV Maastricht. That immediate impact earned him a first team call, and he made his Eredivisie debut as a substitute on 9 April 2023 in a 4-0 victory over Fortuna Sittard. He was also part of Ajax's matchday squad for the 2023 KNVB Cup final, where he converted his penalty in the shoot out.
Across the 2023 to 2024 campaign Godts split time between Jong Ajax and the senior side, with notable output for the reserves, including 6 goals in 14 appearances for Jong Ajax. His progress was interrupted early in the season by a thigh injury that kept him sidelined for around three months, yet he returned to make league appearances and to taste European competition, appearing off the bench in the UEFA Europa League.
Under manager Francesco Farioli Godts became more established in the senior squad for the 2024 to 2025 season, often featuring on the left wing and registering his first senior league goals. He opened his European scoring account with a standout performance on 26 September 2024, netting a brace in a 4-0 UEFA Europa League victory over Beşiktaş. A subsequent hamstring injury sustained against Galatasaray in late January 2025 caused selection issues, but by mid March 2025 he had contributed several league goals and continued to develop his senior résumé.
Internationally he has represented Belgium across youth levels. He earned a cap for the Belgium under 15s in 2020, was a regular for the under 17s with appearances at the 2022 European Under 17 Championship finals, and progressed to the under 19s, where he added further goals and appearances. These official youth records form part of a verifiable history that supports provenance when matching signatures to specific phases of a player's career.
For collectors, a Mika Godts signed shirt carries clear provenance cues, from debut dates to the European brace that elevated his profile. Signed shirts, authenticated autographs, and match worn merchandise derive value from verifiable moments such as debut goals and named competitions, so documentation of match dates and club affiliation is essential for authenticated memorabilia. Provenance links a signature to those milestones and helps collectors understand the piece they acquire.
As Godts continues to establish himself at Ajax and with Belgium's youth teams, his early senior milestones will remain central to the narrative offered with certified items. Walkouts features authenticated releases and provenance notes that tie signatures to exact match dates and accomplishments, helping to preserve the collector story as his career unfolds.
