PSG’s €80 million-rated standout has reportedly attracted interest from Manchester City amid links to Bayern Munich.

Xavi Simons, currently on loan at RB Leipzig from Paris Saint-Germain, is turning heads across Europe’s top clubs, with none other than Pep Guardiola's Manchester City now expressing a keen interest in the young Dutch star, per Fichajes.

At just 21 years old, Simons is proving himself as one of the most promising talents on the international stage. His versatility and creative flair on the pitch have caught Guardiola's eye, making him a highly appealing option for the English giants.

Simons' journey has been one of rapid progression since he left FC Barcelona, where he honed his skills in their famed youth academy.

His move to the Bundesliga has seen him reach new heights with RB Leipzig, where last season he played a pivotal role, netting 10 goals and providing 15 assists across all competitions.

His knack for linking up with teammates and his clinical finishing have really helped him stand out in one of Europe’s toughest leagues. This impressive run of form has seen his market value shoot up to around €80 million.

PSG, still holding the rights to Simons, are closely monitoring his development in Germany, aware that his potential return could be a significant boost for the Parisian outfit.

Yet, as his performances continue to impress, rumours of a possible permanent departure have gathered pace. Clubs like Manchester City seem ready to put a tempting offer on the table for a player who looks destined for stardom.

Bayern Munich have also reportedly entered the race for Simons, seeing him as an alternative to their pursuit of Florian Wirtz.

With Bayern's interest, the battle for the Dutch star’s signature could really heat up, piling the pressure on both PSG and Manchester City to act quickly and make their move.
