Xavi Simons’ Barcelona transfer plan confirmed | OneFootball

An insight into the plans of Paris Saint-Germain star Xavi Simons to engineer a move for himself to La Liga giants Barcelona this summer has today been forthcoming.

The info comes courtesy of Mundo Deportivo, and reiterates that the Dutchman has only one thing on his mind – reuniting with the Blaugrana.

Simons, for his part, is a product of Barca’s youth system, but opted to depart back in the summer of 2019, aware of the tall task that lay ahead in his quest for first-team minutes in Catalunya’s capital.

Now 21, and fresh off a stellar campaign on loan with RB Leipzig, though, the opportunity to reunite with his former employers has surfaced ahead of next season.

And, as per the aforementioned MD, this is one which the player does not intend to allow to pass him by…

Simons, it is assured, has given his full ‘priority’ to a move back to Barcelona.

Despite rival interest on the part of Bayern Munich, Chelsea, Manchester United and Newcastle, the gifted attacker has informed the brass at PSG that he wants only one club – the Blaugrana.

Simons is therefore prepared to wait for Deco and co. to get the financial situation at the Camp Nou back in order, to link up with incoming boss Hansi Flick’s squad.

The youngster has gone as far as to ‘fight’ for as much, with Simons’ only request being that Barca do their utmost to push a deal over the line before the upcoming European Championships.
