Team Talk reports on Tottenham's acquisition of RB Leipzig star Xavi Simons. Tottenham splash out again to bring in RB Leipzig star Xavi Simons. The Netherlands international costs in the region of £60m but arguably gives Frank an upgrade on the inconsistent James Maddison in that role. Simons provides a versatile attacking midfield option.

Xavi Simons' entourage, including his brother and agent Faustino Simons, is negotiating with several clubs. Tottenham Hotspur is one of the English clubs involved. No offers have been made yet, but RB Leipzig is seeking a transfer fee of at least 70 million Euro.

Xavi Simons is seriously interested by Tottenham Hotspur. The Europa League winner wants to acquire the Oranje international from RB Leipzig. Simons has filed a transfer request at RB Leipzig. Tottenham sees Simons as a 'major target' and has more funds to spend due to winning the Europa League. Bayern München and other Premier League clubs are also interested in Simons. Leipzig paid approximately 50 million euros for Simons last winter. The exact amount Tottenham is willing to pay is unknown.

Tottenham have emerged as the leading contenders to secure the services of Netherlands international Xavi Simons, particularly after Leipzig's failure to qualify for European competitions. Simons is set to depart should his €80m (£68m) release clause be activated. The path for a move to Spurs has been cleared following Liverpool's decision to shift their attention from Simons to Bayer Leverkusen’s Florian Wirtz. Ben Mattinson, a former feature writer for TEAMtalk, expressed his belief that Simons is a 'superstar' in the making. Simons departed Paris Saint-Germain to establish himself at Leipzig in the summer of 2023, initially joining on loan before making the move permanent in a €50m (£42m) deal.

According to Team Talk, Tottenham is planning to acquire Simons during the summer transfer window, with the transfer fee expected to be €80 million. The club is facing competition from Liverpool for Simons' signature. It is reported that Tottenham is enthusiastic about the prospect of signing Simons and believes they can persuade both Leipzig and Simons to agree to a deal this summer. The competition, however, is intense as Liverpool, the reigning Premier League champions, are also interested in Simons, making it challenging for Tottenham to convince him to join them instead. This transfer is part of Tottenham's ambitious plan to strengthen their squad following their qualification for the Champions League.
