    Xavi Simons has been re-signed by Paris Saint-Germain, who then leased the young player to RB Leipzig.

    Simons had an outstanding season at PSV Eindhoven last year, amassing 19 goals and nine assists in the Eredivisie. Due to this clause, PSG decided to re-acquire his services using their rumoured Β£5 million buy-back option.

    In addition to re-signing the player, PSG has now also decided to loan the player to Bundesliga team RB Leipzig till the end of the current campaign.

    A club statement from PSG on the move reads: “After a season with PSV Eindhoven, Xavi Simons has returned to Paris Saint-Germain until 2027. The Dutch attacking midfielder will be loaned out to German club RB Leipzig for the 2023-2024 season.”

    Speaking to RB Leipzig’s official channels after signing on loan, Simons expressed his excitement at playing in the Bundesliga: “The Bundesliga is one of the best leagues in Europe and RB Leipzig are one of the best teams in the Bundesliga. Coming to Leipzig is the right step for me because RBL constantly show how to develop young players and be successful with them.

    “I’m joining a club that regularly plays Champions League football. The squad has the perfect mix of lots of young and experienced players, and the whole club is hungry for success. I was immediately impressed by RB Leipzig’s style of play and I strongly believe that my qualities will be a good match for this team and we can achieve a lot together.

    “I can hardly wait to play with my new teammates and to start the new season. Leipzig – I can’t wait!”
