Dutch attacking midfielder Xavi Simons, currently plying his trade at RB Leipzig in the German Bundesliga, is said to be a potential transfer target for Chelsea FC.
The 22-year-old has been impressive this season, with 10 goals and 6 assists in 25 matches, despite Leipzig currently sitting in 7th place with 51 points.
Chelsea, on the other hand, is in a stronger position, holding 4th place in the Premier League with a tally of 69 points, which could potentially offer Simons Champions League football. Standing at 179 cm and weighing 58 kg, Simons has shown that he has the physicality to match his technical skills, which could be a major asset for any club.
His market value is estimated at €70.00m, which translates to approximately 520 million DKK, a substantial investment for any potential suitor. With the transfer window currently open until August 31, there is ample time for negotiations to take place. However, it should be noted that Simons is contracted to RB Leipzig until June 30, 2027, which could make any potential transfer more complex.
The potential move of Simons to Chelsea could be one of the most significant transfers of the summer, and will undoubtedly be closely watched by football fans worldwide.
