According to a media report, Xavi Simons wants to leave RB Leipzig in the upcoming transfer window. According to the British portal "The Athletic", the 22-year-old attacking player has informed the Bundesliga club of his desire to leave. RB Leipzig did not initially respond to an inquiry.
Simons joined Leipzig on loan from Paris Saint-Germain in the summer of 2023 and was signed permanently for 50 million in January. Despite scoring ten goals and providing nine assists, the Dutch international was the second-highest scorer and was unable to avoid missing out on the international places.
Leipzig do not appear to be averse to the player's request, according to media reports. However, the Saxons are looking at a transfer fee of at least 70 million euros, as Simons' contract is valid until the end of June 2027.
