Ajax interested in Udinese’s Nicolo Zaniolo, Italian could be Mika Godts’ replacement Serie A side Udinese have been involved in a bit of a battle for Nicolo Zaniolo throughout this summer and the attacker has attracted interest from Ajax. The Italian joined the Friulian side permanently in the summer but has been pushing to renew his contract, to earn better terms than the one initially agreed upon. This led to links with other clubs but soon, Udinese tied him down to a better deal. Now, Tuttomercatoweb report that Ajax are interested in the winger and they see him as a replacement for Mika Godts, who is on his way to Paris Saint-Germain. The Dutch club have gathered information about Zaniolo and initial contact for his possible signature has already been made. It is believed this is a situation worth monitoring, even if the ex-Roma player’s current deal in Udine runs out in 2029. Move would be a mark of progress A move to Ajax would allow Zaniolo to play in Europe again and it would be a sign of how he has improved at Udinese. It would another move away from Italy for someone who has now had spells in England and Turkey and is no stranger to fancy adventures abroad. Kaustubh Pandey – GIFN
