LEIPZIG, Germany — Bayern Munich's hopes of signing Netherlands forward Xavi Simons have been shelved for now with the player agreeing to extend his loan at Leipzig from Paris Saint-Germain for another season. Leipzig says it has agreed another loan deal with PSG for the highly rated attacker. The club says the 21-year-old Xavi was to complete a medical examination Monday and then train individually for the first time since the European Championship.
