In January, RB Leipzig celebrated a transfer coup with the premature commitment of PSG loan Xavi Simons. With 50 million euros, the Saxons were able to significantly reduce the basic revenge for the offensive jewel. But is the most expensive access in club history in summer again? At least this is what reports of the “Sport Bild” and “Sky” suggest. Especially in the event that the Leipzigers do not get a Champions League ticket.
A sale of Simons is generally not excluded. The fact that RB would not put any stones in the way of a sporty and financially attractive offer was agreed in the contract signature in winter. When missing the premier class, in which Simons absolutely wants to play, the loss of income could be compensated for by the sale. The price tag should amount to 80 million euros in line with market value, combined with the hope of betting between several clubs.
However, the questions remain open which top clubs could offer how much. After an ankle injury, Simons recently ran after his form. According to reports, the ego and self-confidence as well as all -ures and lack of discipline from the top earner, which is said to receive EUR 12 million per season, should cause unrest in the cabin. His appearance is closely observed by the RB bosses.
Unrest in RB Leipzig cabin? Rose takes Simons under protection
“I noticed that there was one or the other idea to push the boy into a corner in which he does not belong. Xavi is a well -being boy who always wants to win and is a great talent, ”coach Marco Rose took him out before the home game against Borussia Dortmund (2-0), in which Simons shone again with a goal and a template. “Xavi is working on becoming a leader and being. Now he had an injury in his career for the first time, then he came back, but the euphoria has now given way to reality. It is difficult for him to accept when some things do not work. “
After his goal against BVB, Simons made clear that the criticism did not go without a trace. With the goal, the Dutch international turned to the Leipzig fans, made the gesture of an on and walking mouth. “Everyone has to increase – me too. In the end, however, we are all just humans. Not everything always runs perfectly. But we work hard to make the fans happy in the end. That is the process and it will be better, ”Simons had previously emphasized in a media round. “I’ve felt this pressure since I was young. It is normal that not everything goes well. You have to stay positive. I was injured for three months, now I’m about two back. I just want to enjoy football and do my best for the team. That is the most important thing for me. “
