Tottenham Hotspur have officially submitted an offer for Xavi Simons, with the proposal reportedly close to RB Leipzig’s €70 million valuation of the Dutch midfielder.
The 21-year-old, currently on loan from Paris Saint-Germain, has been one of the standout performers in the Bundesliga, attracting interest from several Premier League clubs. Spurs appear to be the first to make a concrete move, presenting an all-in package worth around €70 million.
Chelsea, who have also been strongly linked with Simons in recent weeks, have yet to formalize any bid. While the Blues are monitoring the situation, Tottenham’s proactive stance could give them an early edge in negotiations.

RB Leipzig are expected to carefully evaluate Tottenham’s offer, though PSG’s involvement may complicate matters. Paris Saint-Germain reportedly retain a buy-back clause and a strong interest in bringing the player back to Paris this summer.
Simons has already established himself as one of Europe’s brightest young talents, with his versatility and creative playmaking making him an attractive target for top clubs across the continent.
The race for his signature looks set to intensify in the coming weeks, but Tottenham’s formal bid represents a major statement of intent as Ange Postecoglou looks to strengthen his squad ahead of the new season.
