Xavi Simons joins Tottenham as Thomas Frank's side FINALLY end search for new No 10 after Arsenal hijacked Eberechi Eze move

Tottenham have pulled off the major signing of Xavi Simons from RB Leipzig in a welcome boost for new boss Thomas Frank.

Spurs have tracked a high-quality attacking addition all summer and after recent failed pursuits of Morgan Gibbs-White and Eberechi Eze, the capture of 22-year-old Simons represents a significant coup for the north London club.

Versatile attacker Simons has joined Tottenham in a 60million euros (£51.8m) deal, the PA news agency understands.

'Noise? Don't listen to it all, only what matters. Tottenham called and I answered,' Simons said in his announcement video, seemingly in reference to links to Chelsea.
