Chelsea will hold further discussions today with Xavi Simons’ camp as they aim to secure a verbal agreement for the Dutch star, per Florian Plettenberg. Simons is said to be open to the move, with talks progressing well.
Once personal terms are settled, Chelsea plan to negotiate with RB Leipzig. The Blues are also considering tactical setups that could accommodate Simons in a dual number ten system.
Arsenal are keeping an eye on developments but haven’t advanced interest, while Bayern Munich remain keen but without significant progress.
