Chelsea FC have reached an agreement on personal terms with Leipzig attacking midfielder Xavi Simons (22), according to French media Sports Zone. The 22-year-old is closing in on a move to the Club

Chelsea are still targeting Manchester United star Alejandro Garnacho this summer despite their plan to sign Xavi Simons, according to reports. The Blues are edging closer to a deal for Simons following the latest round of ‘positive’ discussions, which have ‘accelerated’ over the last few days.

According to the Telegraph, Chelsea will not shut the door on a move for Garnacho once the Simons deal is completed. The 21-year-old looks certain to leave United after falling out with Ruben Amorim, although the Portuguese boss has insisted he won’t be sold unless the club’s valuation is met.
