Chelsea are currently expected to win the race of RB Leipzig attacker Zabi Simons during the summer transfer period.
German Champions Bayern Munich was also enthusiastic about the 22-year-old Dutch international, but Sebastian Vidal now reveals that Chelsea is expected to beat them to his signature. Bruce is currently giving advanced talks to sign players, and Simons is keen on their projects.
It will be interesting to see if the two clubs can quickly close the move. Simons was also linked to Arsenal.
Chelsea needs Zabi Simons
Chelsea need more quality and depth with their offensive units, and the 22-year-old should prove to be a great acquisition. He can manipulate in multiple offensive roles, adding goals and creativity to the side.
The Dutch International was young enough to improve further, and with proper guidance he was able to develop into a key player for Chelsea. British regular football was able to bring out the best of him and help him realize his potential.
Simons has 21 goals and 23 assists from RB Leipzig in 76 games so far.
Simons will try to make his mark
He will try to prove his quality in the Premier League. If the movement is true. He is undoubtedly one of the most exciting talents in the Bundesliga, and he has a technical attribute that does well in the UK.
The opportunity to join Chelsea is appealing to him. They are one of the largest clubs in the world and have ambitious projects. They recently won two trophies, and they aim to compete for major trophies next season as well.
Chelsea relies too much on Cole Palmer for their final third goal and creativity. England International needs more support in the offense, and the Dutch star could be an ideal acquisition.
