18 goals and 18 assists, 22-year-old Dutch all-round star emerged

Recently, according to ESPN, Bundesliga RB Leipzig midfielder genius star Xavi Simmons has become a hot item in the European transfer market this summer. Up to now, three top European giants, Bayern, Manchester City and Chelsea, are chasing this Leipzig midfielder star, and a fierce battle to grab players has been quietly staged.

Xavi Simmons, the new generation of Dutch international players, is 22 years old this year, and can be called an all-round player in the midfield and frontcourt. He can not only serve as a midfielder in the offensive organization, control the rhythm of the game, but also roam on the wings and tear open the opponent's defense line with his own advantages. He is amazingly fast and explosive, dribbling like walking in the garden, passing the ball accurately and shooting skills are perfect. In the past two seasons, he has shined in the Bundesliga, representing Leipzig in 57 Bundesliga games, has scored 18 goals and contributed 18 assists. Such beautiful data undoubtedly demonstrates his super frontcourt creativity.

It is reported that in January 2025, Leipzig spent 50 million euros to recruit Xavi Simmons from Paris Saint-Germain. Now, Leipzig has priced him at least not less than 80 million euros, which is quite a bit of a huge price. Since the contract between Harvey Simmons and Leipzig was signed in 2027, Leipzig took the absolute initiative in the transfer negotiations and had no pressure to sell people, Leipzig dared to offer such a high price.

Chelsea is eager for Xavi Simmons and is increasing its pursuit. According to ESPN sources, Chelsea had been willing to bid 60 million euros. The Blues are eager to enhance the creativity and attack power of the midfield by introducing this talented player, adding chips to various events in the new season.

Bayern regarded Simmons as an ideal replacement for Koeman. With Koeman leaving the team, Bayern has a vacant position in the forward position, and Simmons' versatile attributes just meet Bayern's tactical needs. Bayern has formally asked Leipzig attacker Xavi Simmons about the transfer, hoping to sign him before the transfer deadline.

Blue Moon Manchester City also joined the battle for the snatch of people in Xavi Simmons. Once Brazilian Savignho leaves the team and joins Tottenham, Manchester City is likely to take action quickly. We know that Manchester City has always focused on building the depth of the lineup. If Simmons' strength can be integrated into the Manchester City system, it will undoubtedly add another sharp blade to the team's offensive end.

However, things have changed a lot. According to ESPN, Xavi Simmons has made it clear to Leipzig that although Bayern and Manchester City are also chasing him, he would rather join the Blues Chelsea. This statement will undoubtedly have a significant impact on this battle to grab people. But in the end, who will be the winner of Harvey Simmons this summer, we can't draw a conclusion yet, so we can only wait and see.
