Paris Saint-Germain want Dutch international Xavi Simons in Paris.
Paris Saint-Germain has made an important decision regarding the future of Xavi Simons (20 years old). Currently on loan at RB Leipzig, the young Dutch midfielder is shining in Germany this season, sparking interest from the German club in a loan extension.
However, the president of the Parisian club, Nasser Al-Khelaïfi, firmly rejected this proposal according to information from AS. The Ile-de-France leader wants the Amsterdammer to join the Paris team upon his return at the end of the 2023-24 season, even considering an extension of his contract running until June 2027 for an additional year.
This decision is part of the long-term strategy of the Parisian president, who sees in the former resident of Masia an emerging talent and a key element in the event of the possible departure of Kylian Mbappé during the next transfer window.
PSG is banking on Simons to bring his youth and creativity to the red and blue squad, with the hope that he will become a regular starter in the years to come, thus strengthening his status as reigning French champion.
