Chelsea are on the verge of pulling off one of the biggest
signings of the summer,
having reached an agreement in principle with Dutch sensation Xavi Simons over personal terms on a mammoth 7-year deal.
Sources close to the negotiations reveal that the Stamford Bridge hierarchy wasted no time in convincing the PSG playmaker of their ambitious project. The long-term contract is a clear signal that Chelsea see Simons not just as a signing for the present, but as a cornerstone of their future.
With the player’s green light secured, the focus now shifts to sealing the deal with PSG. Chelsea are reportedly prepared to table a £50 million base fee, with an additional £8.7 million to be paid in two structured instalments a package designed to meet the French club’s demands and ward off competition from Europe’s elite.
Talks are accelerating at pace, and if all goes to plan, the announcement could turn the Premier League transfer window on its head. Chelsea fans are already imagining the magic of Simons weaving through defenders in blue a statement signing that would underline their intent to reclaim domestic and European glory.
The clock is ticking. The excitement is real. This could be the move that changes everything.
