Money Moving: A Discussion on Financial Transactions - Reports circulate about Bayern's potential pursuit of Leipzig's Xavi.
Bayern Munich are said to be keen on securing the services of Xavi Simons from RB Leipzig, with their sporting director Max Eberl expressing interest in bringing the loanee from Paris Saint-Germain to the Bavarian club. Eberl played a role in the signing of the Dutchman during his time at Leipzig. Following a trophyless season for Bayern, Eberl is putting together a new team under the guidance of new manager, Vincent Kompany.
Xavi's attention is on the Euros
Concerning the future of the highly-touted 21-year-old, who is highly valued at Barcelona, rumors have been circulating for some time. Xavi has been careful when discussing his plans. He is currently focusing on the Euros competition in Germany, where he will also be in the limelight. Leipzig had hoped to have a decision before the start of the tournament.
Leipzig's desire for another loan year
Despite the ongoing speculation, Xavi's future is not set in stone. The offensive player has a contract with PSG that runs until June 30, 2027. Given his importance to the Leipzig team, they would prefer to loan him for another season. However, with Kylian Mbappe's move to Real Madrid, there is now the possibility that Xavi could take on a larger role at PSG. This was not previously considered a likely outcome.
The potential for a transfer and a year's delay
A summer sale of the player from PSG seems improbable. Eindhoven, Xavi's former club, would receive a substantial transfer fee if a deal were to go through. Such funds would subsequently be credited to PSG's account a year later. Additionally, there's the possibility of a loan with a buyout option. Xavi reportedly has the ability to determine where he will be loaned.
Xavi's impressive season
Xavi has an estimated market value of around €80 million. During his time in Leipzig this season, the agile offensive player featured in 43 league games and scored ten goals while providing fifteen assists. Coach Marco Rose hopes to have him on his squad again for the upcoming season.
