Guardiola considers signing Xavi Simons.
Guardiola may face competition for Simons as other top European clubs have also been linked with the young talent. Additionally, there is no guarantee that De Bruyne will leave Manchester City, making Simons’ potential signing uncertain. Furthermore, Simons may not be ready to handle the pressure and expectations of playing for a top Premier League club at such a young age. Only time will tell if this rumored transfer will come to fruition.
According to reports, PSG is considering a swap deal involving Xavi Simons, a young midfielder currently on loan at RB Leipzig, and Bernardo Silva, a Portuguese midfielder from Manchester City. Simons has been impressive this season with 36 appearances and nine goals and 13 assists across all competitions. As his loan spell with Leipzig ends in June 2024, PSG has yet to decide on his future. This potential swap deal shows the club’s interest in acquiring Silva’s talents and using Simons as a bargaining chip.
