RB Leipzig's Xavi Simons: Secret plans for switching to the Premier League!

RB Leipzig is currently in Brazil for a PR trip in which the club management and players want to strengthen the fan base in South America. The focus is particularly on the offensive star Xavi Simons (22 years) because he has won a large followers in Brazil with his impressive style of play. During the trip, Simons had the letters "BR" braid on the back of the head and takes part in a variety of PR appointments for RB Leipzig and its supplier Puma. He did not let his security team out of his sight and brought with him.

On Monday there is a special appointment: Simons will fly 85 kilometers to Santos with a helicopter to meet the superstar Neymar (33) in his academy. Despite all these activities, the talented player has announced that he wanted to strive for a change of club in summer. So far, however, there have been no concrete offers for him, as the sports director Marcel Schäfer (49) confirmed. In addition, the rumors of Bayern Munich have proven to be unconfirmed.

plans for a change and the Premier League

Xavi Simons plans to leave the Bundesliga, which he has already told the club. While there have been rumors about Bayern Munich's interest in the past, the player's focus has now shifted to the Premier League, especially with a loose connection to Chelsea. His strong season at RB Leipzig, in which he was obliged in January for a transfer fee of initially 50 million euros, called teams such as Manchester United, Arsenal and Liverpool.

According to information from 90min, Leipzig plans to request a transfer fee of at least 70 million euros (around 72 million euros) for Simons, should he actually leave the association. A farewell could be particularly painful for Leipzig, since the club has not qualified for the next Champions League season, which could further reduce the attractiveness of the Bundesliga for young talents.

The further development

Xavi Simons has numerous dreams and sees himself in the early phase of his career. A final decision about his new club could only be made after the World Cup qualifiers in June, as he indicates himself. His brother and consultant Faustino Simons (29) is also in Brazil and will soon meet with sports boss Schäfer to plan the future of the talented offensive player.

The coming weeks promise to become exciting in relation to the transfer of Xavi Simons. Should he actually decide to switch to the Premier League, this could have a significant impact on transfer policy not only from RB Leipzig, but also on the clubs involved in the league.
