Ford


Is he old enough to drive yet? Well, we don't know the particulars of his driving lessons but young Si is sure old enough to be sponsored by Ford!

Born on April 21st, 2003, in Amsterdam, Netherlands, the son of former professional footballer Regillio Simmons was always going follow in his father’s footsteps in attempt to become a footballer himself. Si spent the majority fo his youth career at FC Barcelona’s fabled youth academy La Masia, and even at the world’s premier talent factory Si was a star. His Barca youth team won all of their 25 games during the 2016/17 season, scoring an astonishing 164 goals. The midfielder nicknamed Golden Curls for the glamorous appearance of his hair, was selected as the ‘Most Valuable Player’ of the tournament, which added to his four ‘Youth Ballon d’Or’ awards. The young starlet is also a client of the most notorious agent in world football, Mino Raiola. Perhaps it comes as no surprise that Si’s contract negotiations with Barca broke down amid disputes over pay and the wondered was quick to move on to French super club Paris Saint-Germain in 2019. Si signed a four-year contract with The Parisians reportedly worth up to €1 million annually. On 5 August 2020, Golden Curls made his debut for PSG’s senior team in a friendly match against Sochaux. On the international level the Dutch midfielder has represented the Netherlands at under-15, under-16 and under-17 level.
