Xavi Simons is reported to have reached a decision on what the summer transfer window will hold for him, amid interest from the Premier League’s biggest clubs, as well as Bayern Munich.

Simons has enjoyed a strong season as he continues to make good on his potential as a former child prodigy, joining RB Leipzig on a permanent transfer worth an initial €50m in January.

But with Leipzig failing to qualify for next season’s Champions League and the opportunity to take the next step in his career by once more joining a bigger club, a transfer is on the cards.

Fabrizio Romano writes that Simons has decided to leave Leipzig this summer, with the Bundesliga made aware of those plans. It could be that the 22-year-old Netherlands international says in Germany by joining Bayern Munich, or moves to the fifth country of his young career.

Manchester United, Arsenal, Chelsea and Liverpool have all been linked with Simons, who made his name as a highly-rated prospect in Barcelona’s La Masia, before being poached by Paris Saint-Germain and later having a senior breakout with PSV Eindhoven.

“I’m still a young player, I have many dreams – and the club knows that,” Simons tellingly said of his future last month. He went on to imply that a final decision about which side he wants to join will come after a pair of 2026 World Cup qualifiers scheduled for early June.

It has previously been reported that Leipzig, who are also set to field offers for striker Benjamin Sesko this summer, could demand as much as around €72m (£60m) to sell Simons.
