Just back at PSG, the young (20-year-old) Dutch international could go to Leipzig.
Xavi Simons back at PSG? We are still awaiting the press release from the capital club, but PSV Eindhoven, where the young Dutch international spent the past season, has already announced it. It remains to be seen whether it is to stay on the banks of the Seine or not. As various sources have reported, Simons could be loaned out if Neymar and Kylian Mbappé stay in Paris. It remains to be seen where. According to Fabrizio Romano and many other media, it is Leipzig who hold the rope to take him on a one-year loan without an option to buy. Note that the Red Bulls, who lost former Parisian Christopher Nkunku, transferred to Chelsea, should recruit another player from Paris-SG, the young (18) central defender El Chadaille Bitshiabu. Note that according to The team which speaks of a potential loan with an option to buy and the clauses to repatriate the interested party to Paris, Manchester United has not said its last word and would still be in the race.
20-year-old Xavi Simons joined Paris Saint-Germain in 2019 from FC Barcelona. He signed at PSV Eindhoven last year for five years, but with a priority buyout clause estimated at €6m for the benefit of Paris, which is a (very) nice move.
