Hope to intercept Chelsea❗British media: Tottenham Hotspur 60 million euros + floating quotation Xavi Simmons
The Independent reported that Tottenham Hotspur is negotiating the introduction of Leipzig player Xavi Simmons, with a quotation of 60 million euros plus floating terms, and they hope to finalize the signing.
Although Chelsea remains interested in the 22-year-old, he is increasingly open to joining Tottenham, and Simmons has been allowed to go to London to solve his future problems.
Previously, Chelsea had been seen as a favorite to sign the player, but they would need to sell Nkunku and Jackson first to complete the deal.
Since Manchester United's Garnacho is cheaper, Chelsea will prioritize that transfer, which gives Tottenham a chance to sign the sign they long for.
Tottenham have tried to maximize the opportunity by giving convincing lectures to players and submitting a formal offer to Leipzig that has surpassed Chelsea's intentions so far.
Simmons' previous first choice was Chelsea, but the changing situation made him start to re-evaluate. He does still want to get a contract that ranks among the highest paying levels in Tottenham.
Sources insist that if Chelsea can sell Nkunku and Jackson, their plan will still be to bring in Simmons and Garnacho at the same time.
