Xavi Simons is reportedly set to return to RB Leipzig for another year, delaying a final decision about his future. Moreover, Paris Saint-Germain believes this move is in the player’s best interest.
After weeks of speculation about moves to Bayern Munich and Manchester United, Simons is heading to Leipzig. However, it’s just a temporary arrangement, as the Dutchman joins the German side on a loan deal with no option to buy.
Journalist Ben Jacobs recently reported that Simons is heading to Leipzig on loan without a buy option. PSG never entertained the idea of a permanent sale, believing that another loan stint would benefit Simons’ development and increase his market value.
While staying at PSG after the loan remains a possibility, Simons’ long-term future will be determined later. The newest information comes from L’Equipe which reveals that all options are open for next year.
According to the French media outlet, PSG are pleased with Simons’ loan to RB Leipzig and anticipates that the move will enhance his experience and market value.
