According to a report from Sport Bild journalists Christian Falk and Tobi Tobi Altschäffl (as captured by @iMiaSanMia ), Bayern Munich has a plan to get Florian Wirtz in 2025, but it is a two-step process where the Bavarians will fill the gap for one year with Paris Saint-Germain attacker Xavi Simons. In theory, it is a plan that could work, but would take some major maneuvering to get all of these pieces in place for it to happen. Let’s take a look: There’s a consideration for Bayern to sign Xavi Simons on a season-long loan deal and then go for Florian Wirtz next summer.
But it remains to be seen whether it’s realistic for Bayern to sign such a prominent player only on loan and also whether Simons would accept that. It would seem doubtful that PSG would empower Bayern Munich — one of the French club’s primary competitors in the Champions League — with one-year loan of Simons, when there will surely be other options — and also at a time where he might be a fit in their own starting XI. Getting Wirtz for what will surely be a nine-figure fee from a Bundesliga competitor might even be more likely than Simons moving to Bayern Munich for one season.
While the debate could rage on regarding the likelihood of a move for Simons, the real story here is Bayern Munich once again being linked with a move for Bayer Leverkusen’s Wirtz. Why that is important is because if — and it is a big if — Bayern Munich is planning to really take a serious run at Wirtz, it will .
