The Dutch midfielder now belongs to PSG after playing 9 years in Barcelona's youth divisions. What did he say about Lionel Messi?

Xavi Simons is, for many specialists, one of the promises of world football at 16 years old. The Dutch midfielder left Barcelona to join PSG. Didn't he dream of reaching the first team and playing alongside Lionel Messi like Ansu Fati does? "Everyone dreams of playing with him, but sometimes you have to choose a different path," said Xavi Simons in an interview for the 'NOS' media outlet in the Netherlands. "I decided to embark on another adventure and I think that's good for my development," added the youngster. Xavi Simons spent 9 years in Barcelona's youth divisions and then signed with PSG, where he plays with the U19 team. He also trained with the senior squad of the Parisians.

"At first, it was difficult because they are physically stronger. Now I am used to it and I feel good. And I already trained once with the first team. I was very happy with that," commented Xavi Simons.
