Posted on October 19, 2021 at 8:30 p.m. by Arthur Montagne At the end of the contract next June, Xavi Simons (18) has to be content with the U19s since his arrival at PSG. A situation which would also begin to annoy the young Dutchman who has still not extended his contract which ends next June. Considered one of the most promising elements of La Masia, Xavi Simons finally left FC Barcelona during the summer of 2019 to join PSG . The free arrival of the Dutch midfielder was quickly hailed as a very nice move for the future. However, not everything goes as planned. And for good reason, Xavi Simons had to settle for a short minute in Ligue 1 against Strasbourg last April, and 12 minutes in the Coupe de France against Caen in February. Therefore, although he continues to give his maximum with the U19s, Xavi Simons begins to get impatient as his contract ends next June with PSG . So much so that according to journalist Adrian Sanchez during his visit to Mas that Pelotas Radio, Xavi Simons would have asked his agent, Mino Raiola , to probe the FC Barcelona for a return at the end of the season. The reason would also be purely sporting since the Dutchman hopes to obtain more playing time. For his part, PSG would be annoyed that the discussions are at a standstill concerning a contract extension like explains RMC Sport. Consequently, Xavi Simons is for the moment excluded from the professional group and continues to evolve with the U19s while waiting for the situation to unblock. Zoumana Camara , U19 coach is also delighted with the performance of Xavi Simons . After the victory against Leipzig (3-0), in which the Dutchman scored a goal and delivered two assists, the former central defender of PSG praised his player. “When he's with me, he's good. He is a boy who in the mentality never gives up and always works. He is decisive, he is good. He is more of a field leader than a locker room leader. This is where he needs to go and improve because he has been in France for quite a few years now and besides, he speaks the language well. This is an area where he needs to improve, especially in a key position like his. The goal is for him not to stay with me. If he continues like this, I think he will not stay long, “he assures in remarks reported by RMC, before discussing his contractual situation:” I do not have the impression that he be disturbed by it. He does his job, comes every day with a smile. I do not feel a player who thinks about that. “
