In a nail-biting Euro 2024 semi-final match against England, Xavi Simons secured his second international goal with a stunning strike that left the crowd in awe. However, despite his brilliant performance, the 21-year-old is facing a tough decision on where he will be playing his football next season.
Currently with Paris Saint-Germain, Simons has only made 11 appearances for the French team and spent last season on loan at RB Leipzig. This was after PSG sold him to PSV in 2022, where he had a successful season before being bought back by his current club. However, with limited playing time, Simons has expressed his desire to leave PSG this summer, although he may have to settle for another loan deal.
Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano has revealed that both Bayern Munich and RB Leipzig are interested in signing Simons on short-term deals. This has added to the intrigue surrounding the young midfielder, who has caught the attention of many top clubs with his impressive skills on the field.
Despite the painful defeat against England, Netherlands boss Ronald Koeman took a moment to console Simons, recognizing his potential and talent. As the player weighs his options for next season, a return to Leipzig or a move to Bayern under Vincent Kompany seem to be the most viable choices.
While there have been rumors of Manchester United's interest in Simons, it is unlikely that they will prioritize him over their search for a new center-back and center-forward. However, there is a possibility of another Dutchman, Matthijs de Ligt, joining United this summer. According to Bild, talks between United and Bayern are progressing, with the Premier League club willing to meet De Ligt's asking price of £42m.
As the summer transfer window heats up, all eyes will be on Xavi Simons as he makes a crucial decision that will shape his career. Will he stay with PSG, return to Leipzig, or make a big move to Bayern? Only time will tell, but one thing is for sure - Simons is a rising star in the world of football and his future looks bright.
