Arsenal transfer target Xavi Simons could be set for a return to Paris Saint-Germain after a huge €6 million (£5.1m) decision was made. The Gunners emerged as a concrete option for the Netherlands international earlier this year following reports Arsenal were offered the chance to sign him amid his change in representation which hinted towards a Premier League move.
In a report from May, by the Mirror, it was revealed that Arsenal would have the opportunity to sign Simons from PSV Eindhoven in the summer trading period. A challenging spell in France saw the 20-year-old sign for the Dutch club on a free transfer last summer, but his 2022/23 season was the total opposite.
From 48 appearances in several competitions, Simons grabbed 22 goals and a further 12 assists with the majority of his returns coming in an attacking midfield role. Prior to the summer window opening, Simons had already made a significant decision after he chose to replace his previous agent Rafaela Pimente with Darren Dein who has clear connections to Arsenal.
