Barcelona currently has one of the best midfields in the world, but there is potential to strengthen the midfield further next season.
\nThis season, once again, has been very tough on Xavi Hernandez’s players in terms of injuries, as the heart of the team was taken away after the injury to Javi, as well as Pedri and Frenkie de Jong.<\/p>\n
For this reason, with only Andreas Christensen now available as a central midfielder, Barcelona concluded that signing a new player in the midfield would be necessary.
\nAccording to information received from the Spanish newspaper \u201cEl Nacional\u201d, Barcelona is seeking to recover its jewel and its prodigal son, the player who is performing at amazing levels with his team this season, and here we are talking about the Dutch star Xavi Simons.<\/p>\n
The newspaper added that Deco desperately wants Xavi Simons to return to Barcelona again after his remarkable brilliance with Leipzig, especially against Real Madrid, as we all saw.
\nThe player is now on loan to the German team Leipzig, and next June, Xavi Simons will return to Paris Saint-Germain, with a market value of 70 million euros. Considering that his contract in Paris extends until 2027, his exit may cost about 90 million euros.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
