Xavi Simons’ playing style is not usually seen in an ordinary winger, he usually loves to break the opposition’s defense line by running at them and performing his fancy stuff which helps in creating a positive result for the team he plays for. His biggest strength is that, since he can play in all forward positions bar striker, he can invert into the central areas from the left side and make plays from there, or likes to curl shots to the upper right part of the goal. Xavi is efficient when it comes to creating space and opening up the opponent’s defense lines.
Xavi spent his early days in Barcelona and was then transferred to PSV and then PSG. People underestimated him due to his height being just 160 cm and also his thin body frame. He had great technical abilities but many believed that having just those wasn’t enough. Gradually, he worked hard on himself and proved everyone wrong with the sort of appearance he has developed now.
These small things show the passion and acumen Xavi Simons has for the game. Various elite clubs like Manchester United, Bayern Munich, and RB Leipzig are now entering the battle to sign the Dutch winger by giving him a handsome salary for the season. They know how impactful and decisive this player could prove for them.
Manchester United Continue To Push for New Midfield Additions
Manchester United’s main target has been midfield and attack this transfer window, Xavi Simons being one of them. Talks are ongoing for PSG’s Ugarte as well and Manchester United feels confident about signing him this summer. Mason Mount is fit again and also is back training with the squad.
There are still question marks spread everywhere for the future of Red midfielder veterans Casemiro and Scott McTominay. A rumor about Bruno Fernandes possibly leaving the club for the French defending champions PSG has spread on social media as well. However, it is very unlikely to happen for Bruno Fernandes to leave the Red Devils. There will be several arrivals, and several departures but the main priority for Manchester United at this moment is to scout for such players, who can help them restore their long-lost form in the domestic league and also secure them a spot in the 2025-2026 Champions League tournament.
