Press reports revealed the position of a player in the first team of Paris Saint-Germain regarding moving to Barcelona, Spain, during the upcoming summer transfer period.
Barcelona fans are awaiting the beginning of the opening of the summer Mercato doors in order to conclude many strong deals to strengthen the team, especially after a difficult season at all levels for the Catalan team.
Xavi Hernandez, Barcelona’s coach, wants to sign Dutch player Xavi Simons, a Paris Saint-Germain player who is playing on loan to Leipzig this season.
According to the Catalan newspaper “Sport”, Xavi wants to return Simons to Barcelona, starting next season.
The newspaper added that Luis Enrique, coach of Paris Saint-Germain, will be an obstacle in the negotiations, especially since he wants Simons to return to the French team after the end of the loan.
The newspaper indicated that Paris Saint-Germain has no intention of selling Simons, and considers him one of the stars who can be relied upon in the future, but Laporta is planning to make the player rebel against the Paris administration, and then Barcelona can sign the player via loan, at the very least.
The newspaper concluded that if Laporta succeeds in his plan, he will deal a strong shock to the Paris administration and Nasser Al-Khelaifi, after many shocks that the Parisian team directed at Barca previously.
