Arsenal is one of the clubs waiting on Xavi Simons to decide his next move as he prepares to leave PSG.
The Dutchman is available for a loan deal and has been linked with a move to the Emirates and several other top clubs.
Due to the Netherlands’ progress at Euro 2024, he has remained on holiday, but he will return soon. Fabrizio Romano says a decision on his future is nearer than ever.
Romano reveals that the former PSV attacker is expected to choose his next club this week after PSG permitted him to leave on loan again.
Arsenal will have their fingers crossed about his decision, but Romano adds that Bayern Munich and RB Leipzig are currently leading the race for his signature.
He spent the last campaign on loan at Leipzig and thoroughly enjoyed his time there, but it remains unclear if he will want to change clubs and leagues.
If he decides to play in the Premier League and test himself in one of the best competitions in the world, then Arsenal could be favourites to sign him.
Just Arsenal Opinion
Simons has been one of the best attacking midfielders for some time, and including him in our squad would be a fine piece of business.

It looks likely that he’ll stay where he is. Barcelona were the favourites to sign him if he leaves but I’m told by Spanish friends that’s unlikely (for now, anyway).
If Williams does stay, Arsenal had better move quickly for Merino if they still want him as Barcelona are probably going to turn their attention to other signings if the Williams move doesn’t happen and Merino is on their list as well.
Is there a problem here, as I’ve posted 3 times where Xavi Simons has gone, but none have come up ?
No mate, it looks like a glitch mate. My spam filter has put 50 comments straign in bin!
Thanks for letting me know and apologies!
Thanks for the reply 👍
He has re-signed for RB Leipzig on a 1 year loan deal.
Yes, much ado about nothing (in the end). It looks similar with Williams as he’s apparently staying put. It wouldn’t surprise me if Raphinha didn’t do the same. That may be a good thing, but you can’t be sure about any of them until the contract is signed.
