The future of Xavi Simons seems to be far from Germany. The young Dutch attacking midfielder, just 22 years old, has decided to take a step further in his career and has made it clear: he does not want to continue at RB Leipzig.

The project of the German team does not convince the player, who feels that the team is too far from competing for relevant titles and, furthermore, out of European competitions, a scenario that is insufficient for a talent of his caliber.

The start of the season has only solidified his convictions. On the first matchday of the Bundesliga, Leipzig was overwhelmed by Bayern Munich with a resounding 6-0 scoreline, exposing the gap between both projects. MundoDeportivo reports that Simons does not want to waste any more time and has expressed his desire to leave the club to the board.

Chelsea Wants to Sign Xavi Simons

The destination is clear: Chelsea. The London club has been working for weeks on his signing, and according to sources close to the operation, there is already an agreement between the player and the English entity. The issue lies in the fact that the 'blues' need to offload several players before being able to make new signings, including Alejandro Garnacho, another name on the Stamford Bridge agenda.

Rouven Schroder, Leipzig's sporting director, acknowledged that the situation is open. "The market is ongoing, we cannot guarantee anything one hundred percent," stated the executive, indirectly admitting that the departure of their star is a real possibility. He also confessed that the player has made clear his ambition to move to a larger club.

Xavi Simons's numbers support his desire to climb in European football. In the 2024-25 season, he played in 33 matches across all competitions, scoring 11 goals and providing 9 assists. Impressive statistics for a creative, fast-paced player with a competitive instinct that make him an ideal fit for the Premier League.

RB Leipzig is trying to hold onto him, aware that losing one of their most talented players would seriously weaken their project. However, the player himself is exerting pressure for his wishes to be respected. The feeling in the Dutchman's circle is that his transfer should be resolved before the Deadline Day, as he believes that Chelsea offers him the perfect stage to establish himself among the continent's elite.

The showdown is underway: on one side, a club reluctant to lose its star; on the other, a player determined to make the definitive leap in his career. What is clear is that the immediate future of Xavi Simons will be one of the major soap operas of this transfer market.
