Premier League leader Liverpool is planning to make a busy summer transfer window.
The Reds are currently working on new contracts for players like Virgil van Dyk and Mohamed Sarah, but are also preparing to set out for right-back Trent Alexander Arnold.
Players like Darwin Nunes and Lewis Diaz also face an uncertain future at Anfield and can be replaced after this season.
The Merseyside Club is tied to the move of Bournemouth left-back Milos Kerkez, who has been attracting attention as a long-term alternative to Andy Robertson.
Transfer News expert Fabrizio Romano confirmed with Xavi Simons Liverpool’s interest in one of the world’s best young midfielders.
However, Liverpool is not alone in the race to sign a young Dutchman who can play in many different positions.
Romano confirmed Liverpool’s interest in Simons on his YouTube channel, referring to Arsenal, Chelsea and Manchester United as clubs tracking Dutch midfielders.
He said:
“There’s a movement, and my understanding is that around 700-75 million euros (58-63 million pounds), there’s an opportunity to attack a deal with Xavi Simons.”
“Xavi Simons has a concrete possibility of already leaving Red Bull Leipzig during this summer transfer period. That’s not guaranteed, but it’s a concrete possibility.”
“The Premier League is the most specific possibility. What we can mention is that Premier League clubs were interested in a year ago.”
“Arsenal, Chelsea, Manchester United and Liverpool are also well informed of the situation, and all of these clubs are calling for them to be informed.”
“Leipzig doesn’t have to pay for add-ons and appears to be ready to say goodbye to the Dutch to avoid actually making a profit from the sale.”
From Zabi Simons to Liverpool?
Simons is a player who can play as an offensive midfielder, a winger and a playmaker who is telling deep lies.
He fits like a glove to Anfield’s Arne Slot’s system, but it remains to be seen whether Liverpool will move forward with interest in players.
Simons has the technical capabilities and vision to shine for a big club in the Premier League. He could be an exciting addition to the league’s top teams.
With Liverpool likely to make a big difference to the team this summer, Simons could potentially become a player who could become a midfielder in the future.
While Simons could arrive, Jarrell Quanza was able to leave the club for a move to Newcastle United.
Arsenal believes the 21-year-old Premier League player is approaching his move to Liverpool
