Xavi Simons, former star of the Barcelona youth academy, who recently signed a contract with PSV Eindhoven, is reportedly in talks to join Real Madrid. Xavi Simons signed with the Dutch giant until 2027.
It was stated that Real Madrid showed interest in the 19-year-old Dutch midfielder, who was approaching the end of his contract with PSG and was persuaded to leave the Paris squad.
According to Lequipe, Real Madrid would consider him in the B team, Castilla.
However, Xavi Simons rejected the initial offers from Real Madrid and instead decided to sign with PSV to play in the Eredivisie.
What was said?
“After three wonderful years at the club, it’s time to say goodbye,” he shared in a post to his millions of social media followers as he left PSG.
“I am very grateful to the coaches, staff, teammates and all the staff. PSG will always be in my heart.”
PSV Football Director John de Jong noted that they watched all the matches of the player in the past season:
“In addition to the matches he played for the Netherlands National Team, we followed him live in the Youth League matches in Leipzig, Paris and Bruges. He convinced us with his quality. Xavi has everything it takes to be an important player in the PSV squad and he wishes to grow with the club.”
