As we exclusively revealed in recent days, Xavi Simons will once again be loaned out by PSG this summer. And the Dutch prodigy has already chosen where he wants to play next year.
PSG is preparing to make a turn this summer. Indeed, with Kylian Mbappé’s departure confirmed, the capital club will have no choice but to reinvent itself to overcome this major loss. Always eager to win the most prestigious trophies year after year, the residents of the Parc des Princes are therefore gearing up to strengthen this summer to maintain hope of clinching their first Champions League title next year.
PSG could boast several young players capable of taking over from KM7. In addition to Bradley Barcola and Warren Zaïre-Emery, Xavi Simons will also return from his loan spell at RB Leipzig this summer. With 10 goals and 15 assists this season in 43 matches, the 21-year-old attacking midfielder has displayed all his talent in Germany and has raised great hopes among Parisian supporters.
On Twitch, PSG coach Luis Enrique praised his player: “he is another player who belongs to the club. He is on loan and he is excellent. He has the perfect qualities for what we want. He could obviously be a very interesting option for us but it depends on the clubs.” The problem is, the Dutchman had other ideas from the start. Indeed, as revealed in the international press, the former PSV Eindhoven player had no intention of returning to Île-de-France next season. This is information we are able to confirm.
Xavi Simons absolutely wants to rejoin FC Barcelona
And as we exclusively reported this Sunday on our website, the Amsterdam native will be loaned out again this summer. And according to information from Mundo Deportivo this Tuesday, Xavi Simons is determined to return to FC Barcelona. Despite interest from other top clubs, the right-footer is even taking his time to allow the Blaugranas to sort out their financial fair play issues and thus join them as soon as possible. As a reminder, he was defined as one of the Masia’s gems in his early days and lived in Barcelona from the age of 7 to 15.
For all these reasons, Xavi Simons does not want to miss a meeting with Barça, who are also interested in bringing the prodigal son back home. The fact that he is available on loan is also a boon for the Catalan club, which has been facing huge financial problems for so many years now. A loan, similar to what was done last year for the arrivals of João Félix and João Cancelo, makes the operation much more affordable. On the player’s side, optimism reigns regarding a return to the Camp Nou next year. It remains to be seen when negotiations between PSG and Barça, always complex, will officially begin. Meanwhile, Simons has made his choice!
