RB Leipzig has successfully secured the return of Netherlands international winger Xavi Simons by signing him on loan from Paris St-Germain for the 2024-25 season.
The 21-year-old had a productive loan spell at Leipzig last season, where he scored 10 goals and provided 15 assists in 43 appearances, contributing to the team’s fourth-place finish in the Bundesliga.
“I got everything I wanted from my move to Leipzig,” said Simons. “I joined a great team and felt everyone’s trust and belief in me. I was able to develop as both a player and a person – RB Leipzig is the perfect place for you to do that. On top of that, the club really value me and made it clear over the last few months that they would like to sign me. They highlighted a clear and concise plan for me for the coming season.”
Simons also represented the Netherlands at Euro 2024, where he scored to give his team the lead in their semi-final against England, although the match ended in a 2-1 defeat for the Netherlands.
