"It's a question worth asking in terms of whether someone like Xavi Simons would appeal if Tottenham were to be relegated this season. Vincent Kompany and Max Eberl both like the player. However, he was simply too expensive to sign from RB Leipzig last summer."
"Uli Hoeneß, the former president of Bayern Munich, shared a nice story about this particular topic. We knew Kompany paid a visit to Tegernsee, where Hoeneß lives, along with Christoph Freund, the sporting director. They were asking permission to sign Simons."
"This summer, we have to see! Xavi Simons has to be really cheap for Bayern to even consider it. In the meantime, there are a few other names on the shortlist that are more highly rated."
Bayern Munich is not prioritizing Xavi Simons on their summer transfer shortlist. A potential relegation for Tottenham could lower Simons' valuation, making him a more attractive option. Both Vincent Kompany and Max Eberl have shown interest in Simons, but his high price from RB Leipzig last summer deterred a move. Uli Hoeneß emphasized promoting from within rather than spending excessively. If Bayern's top targets fail, and Simons is cheap, he may be reconsidered.
