PSG continues to trust in renewing Xavi Simons

Among the many things that PSG have to do in the summer, one of the most important is to try to keep as many youngsters as possible in the squad. The endless exodus of homegrown players in recent years, such as Nkunku, Coman or Diaby, has weighed down the club to have a competitive squad to give rest to the most usual. The next to leave could be Xavi Simons, although according to Le Parisien, the club does not lose hope to reach an agreement to renew him.

In fact, The environment of the former Barcelona player is upset with Pochettino, according to the Parisian newspaper, for having left him out of the squad against Clermont on Saturday. No apparent physical problems the Argentine coach decided to call him off in a match in which he could have had minutes after the PSG win for 1-6 in the house of the newly promoted.

These types of decisions are what keep Simons away from the renewal. The midfielder wants sporting guarantees and Pochettino has not given him any. The overbooking of the squad in midfield keeps him from having minutes, so it is most likely that he will stop being part of the club as of June 30. Meanwhile, Al Khelaïfi and Leonardo keep trying to convince him to renew, guaranteeing him minutes in the first team next season.
