FC Bayern: Does the record champions reach Xavi in the race for the top clubs?

München, Deutschland - FC Bayern Munich said goodbye to RB Leipzig from 2024 with an impressive 5-1 win against RB Leipzig. This success, under the direction of the new trainer Vincent Kompany, underpins the impressive form of Munich. But the team not only seems to be satisfied with the course of the game, but also has ambitious goals on the transfer market. According to a report by Derwesten, Bavaria may have the chance to hire the Dutch international Xavi Simons after already in the summer inventory.

XAVI, currently loaned by Paris Saint-Germain to RB Leipzig, could be available for an impressive transfer of at least 80 million euros. This would be a high sum, but compared to other options such as Florian Wirtz, which is also targeted by Bavaria, Xavi would be the cheaper choice. Meanwhile, RB Leipzig is facing the top game in Munich with mixed feelings, since coach Marco Rose confirmed that David Raum may be ready for a short effort after a long injury break, while Xavi Simons cannot play because of his injury, like ran.de

For FC Bayern, the game against Leipzig is crucial to consolidate the place at the top of the table. Trainer Rose clearly stated the direction of the march: "We will try everything to make life difficult for Bavaria." An important factor for Munich will be Harry Kane, whose return after an injury could cause additional pressure to defend the Leipzig. While Leipzig is trying to use its last stabilized form, it remains to be seen whether they can annoy Bayern.
