He also talked about Bayern’s sporting director Max Eberl, with whom he worked at RB Leipzig.
“Negotiations happen regularly in football, but I prefer not to name anyone specifically. Max was instrumental in bringing me to RB Leipzig, and I’m grateful for that. However, it was crucial for me to find a place where I could further develop and play my game. Tottenham provided that opportunity,” Simons explained.
Reminder: Simons transferred to the Premier League club for €65 million, signing a contract until 2030 with an option to extend for two more years.
Last season, he appeared in 33 matches across all competitions, scoring 11 goals and providing 8 assists.
