Transfer: Man City to hijack Chelsea’s move for Xavi Simons
Manchester City have entered the race to sign Xavi Simons from RB Leipzig this summer.
This is due to the likely departure of Savinho from the Etihad.
Tottenham Hotspur are keen on signing Savinho and have opened talks with their Premier League rivals.
With the Brazilian set to leave, City are now looking to replace him with Xavi.
According to Mercato, they have reestablished contact with super agent Ali Barat in an attempt to lure Xavi away from Chelsea.
The Blues have been negotiating for the midfielder for weeks, but are yet to reach a breakthrough.
The 22-year-old could now find himself in a tug of war between City and Chelsea.
