Xavi Simons Chooses to Join PSG’s Biggest Rival

According to Spanish media, Xavi Simons wants to join FC Barcelona next season, which could cause issues for PSG.

Xavi Simons, the forward under contract with Paris Saint-Germain until 2027, does not want to return to the club. A sale might have been considered if PSV Eindhoven did not still hold a percentage of any permanent transfer. According to PSG insider Djamel on X, Simons has requested to be loaned out for another season.

Despite this, PSG’s coach Luis Enrique has expressed a positive opinion about Simons in recent weeks. « 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 definitely be a very interesting option for us, but it depends on the clubs. »

Xavi Simons Wants to Return to His Youth Club

Mundo Deportivo revealed on Tuesday that Xavi Simons wants to move to FC Barcelona next season. Despite interest from other top clubs, the player wants to return to his first club, as he played with La Masia and lived in Barcelona from the age of 7 to 15.

Barcelona, facing significant financial issues, would also favor a loan, which would be economical. But will PSG agree to strengthen a direct competitor?
