Xavi Desperate to make Chelsea move

CHELSEA are back in the chase to try and sign Xavi Simons from RB Leipzig this transfer window, and the Dutchman is is reportedly desperate to complete that move to the Blues

Chelsea had a very impressive season under Enzo Maresca last campaign and managed to win a trophy, but also managed to get inside those Champions League places for this upcoming season.

The transfer window has been very goof for the Blues already this summer window, and the club have improved in all areas of the pitch, but there is still alot of talk that the club will still seek to splash the cash and add a few more players to the side,

Simon Phillips has claimed that the player is very keen on a potential move to Stamford Bridge, however the Blues are matched in their interest by Arsenal.

He said on his Substack: “Arsenal are interested in Simons as said, but our sources have heard they are focusing on Eze still but if they cannot get that over the line then Simons is the backup for them.

“Sources feel Chelsea could have come in and snapped Simons up by the time that happens anyway. So this one is certainly brewing up and all connected.

“Further to this, our sources have heard that Simons ‘would love to join Chelsea’ this window, so there would be no problem on the player side. Chelsea, expected to make more enquiries on Simons this week now.”

IcFootballnews Says…

Xavi Simons is a brilliantly gifted footballer with a great track record in each of his last three seasons. He is the type of player that Blues fans would love to see arrive in the coming months, he would really add some more quality to that Chelsea midfield.

If CHELSEA can beat the likes of Arsenal, Man United, and Bayern Munich to his signature, it would be a major coup. But meeting that £60 million asking price could be an issue as the Blues need to improve other areas of the pitch first.

Simons has options this summer, Chelsea would be getting a very good player that is for sure.
