Bad for ÖFB star
Automatically saved draft
RB Leipzig have signed Xavi Simons and made him the most expensive signing in the club's history. The Dutch team player, who was previously on loan from Paris Saint-Germain, signed a contract until 2027, as the German Bundesliga club announced.
According to the media, the basic transfer fee is 50 million euros. The €40 million transfer of Loïs Openda was previously the Saxons' highest outlay.
Simons' transfer fee could rise to 80 million euros due to bonus payments, although this is highly unlikely. Christoph Baumgartner's 21-year-old rival for one of the attacking positions has been playing at Leipzig since July 2023 and has quickly become a regular.
Eljif Elmas, on the other hand, is leaving Leipzig for Italy. As the club confirmed, the North Macedonian will be loaned out to Valentino Lazaro's Torino until the end of the season. The Serie A club will pay the 25-year-old's salary and has an option to buy him for 17 million euros. Elmas moved to Leipzig from Napoli for 23 million euros a year ago.
