Barça does not stop in this transfer window. After the long soap opera Nico Williams, who finally failed, interest in Marcus Rashford (Manchester United) or even for Luis Diaz (Liverpool), the Blaugranas would now closely follow the situation of Xavi Simons. Very close, even, since Deco, the sports director of the club, would have met the agents of the Dutch Leipzig this Thursday, July 17, according to Sport. Indeed, Italian Ali Barat, although he is not officially his agent, plays an important role in the player's decision -making. Accompanied by Faustino Simons, the brother of Xavi Simons, he participated in a meeting of around 45 minutes in a town hall.
Despite this surprising information, the club's financial situation makes an extremely complex agreement. The player's current price is simply unaffordable, especially since Hansi Flick said that the workforce was already overloaded in the midfield. For the moment, this would only be an information and first contact with the agents, in order to remain attentive to the evolution of the market. The former PSG, who also played being small at Barça, would necessarily want to come back one day. Despite his injury at the start of the season, Xavi Simons scored 11 goals this season in 33 games. He could play an interesting role in Catalonia in the coming years, even if Fermin Lopez and Dani Olmo seem to meet the expectations of Flick in this role of attacking midfielders.
