Chelsea target £60m Bundesliga star to add to Liam Delap, Joao Pedro and Jamie Gittens signings - but Enzo Maresca's side may push for exits

Chelsea are targeting a move for RB Leipzig star Xavi Simons with the Blues expecting to offload more attacking talent this summer.

Simons is expected to leave the Bundesliga club after their failure to secure Champions League football for the upcoming season.

The Dutch international had joined RB Leipzig last summer on a permanent basis, with the deal worth an initial £43m, with a further £26m in possible add ons.

Simons had spent two seasons on loan at the club from French giants PSG, while the former Barcelona academy prospect had also spent a year at PSV.
