PSG pushes for the Netherlands international because of recent discussions between PSV Eindhoven and the player’s agent. Still, those talks didn’t yield any immediate results. In the past, Arsenal is also linked to Simons, adding another layer of intrigue to the situation.
Simons left Paris in 2022 for more playing time and a prominent role at PSV. In one season, the former PSG youth product flourished for the Eredivisie club, scoring 22 goals and 12 assists in 48 appearances during the 2022-23 season.
As PSG strives to build a competitive team capable of achieving both domestic and European success, the potential return of Xavi Simons represents a significant step in their long-term vision.
The coming weeks will shed light on the negotiations and whether PSG’s efforts will successfully secure the talented midfielder’s return to the Parc des Princes.
