Tottenham poised to sign £51.8m Xavi Simons after Chelsea leave path clear

Chelsea could move for López as well as Garnarcho

Wolves in Arokodare talks, West Ham sign Fernandes

Tottenham are poised to complete the £51.8m signing of Xavi Simons from RB Leipzig. Personal terms have been agreed with the attacking midfielder and a medical has taken place.

Barring any last-minute hitches the deal will be a major boost for Thomas Frank, who has been looking to add an attacking midfielder. Spurs have lost James Maddison and Dejan Kulusevski to injury and have missed out on Eberechi Eze, who joined Arsenal from Crystal Palace, and Nottingham Forest’s Morgan Gibbs-White, who signed a new contract.
