Tottenham fans might have to wait a little longer before seeing Xavi Simons make his debut for the Lilywhites, but they could still catch a glimpse of the new signing in action for the Netherlands when they face Poland tonight.
The first international break of the 2025/26 season is in full swing, and Tottenham Hotspur head into it off the back of a frustrating 1-0 defeat against Bournemouth in the Premier League.
For Spurs supporters, the wait for Premier League football will stretch another week, with the focus now turning towards international fixtures across Europe.
Several Tottenham players have been called up for duty with their national teams, giving fans the chance to keep a close eye on their performances and perhaps catch a first look at some of the new arrivals.
How Tottenham fans can watch Xavi Simons in action for the Netherlands vs Poland
Several new players joined Tottenham during the summer transfer window, yet some of them are still waiting to make their first-team bow for the Lilywhites.
However, Spurs fans may not have to wait much longer to watch new Dutch signing Xavi Simons in action, as he is expected to feature when the Netherlands face Poland tonight at 19:45, with the game being shown live on Amazon Prime.
Xavi Simons, who was signed just before the Bournemouth clash, has not yet had the chance to pull on a Spurs shirt in competitive action, leaving supporters eager to see what he can bring to Thomas Frank’s side.
Why Simons must stay fit during the international break
Although Simons has not yet made his debut for Tottenham, he has already played competitive football this season with RB Leipzig before making the switch to north London.
In just two appearances for the Bundesliga side, the 22-year-old registered a goal and an assist, underlining his sharpness and ability to make an impact in the final third.
Tottenham fans will hope that he comes through the international break without any injury setbacks, particularly as the squad remains light in the number ten role with James Maddison and Dejan Kulusevski both sidelined.
