Among the big clubs of the Premier League, Chelsea had been the quietest of them all. While other teams like Liverpool and Arsenal are securing huge transfers, Chelsea have only made one big transfer, and that is Geovany Quenda from Sporting CP for a reported fee of £45 million.
The men in blue had been quite successful last season as they won the UEFA Conference League as well as the Club World Cup. It had been one of their best season in recent years. The fans were expecting multiple arrivals for the upcoming season, but so far, they had to face disappointment.
Chelsea are possibly signing this Dutch International
But finally, it looks like they are going to secure a big transfer in the form of the Dutch attacking midfielder Xavi Simons. This highly rated midfielder had been extremely impressive for RB Leipzig for the last couple of seasons and also for PSV for the season before.
Xavi Simons is rated £70 by his present side
The Dutch International had been a much wanted man in Europe this season, but it looks like the defending Conference League winners will be able to secure this much wanted signature. Reports suggest that German giants Bayern Munich were also interested in the 22 year old.
Chelsea have already secured the signature of Geovany Quenda
But the defending German League champions are now set to miss out on the Xavi Simons. While Chelsea, on the other hand, are on the brink of securing the signature of Xavi Simons. Some sources like Caughtoffside are already claiming that the Blues have already agreed personal terms with the Dutch International.

While Xavi Simons is closing in on joining the defending Club World Cup winners, some players are probably heading out of the club. Christopher Nkunku may have been the player that could be shown the door as Bayern Munich and Nkunku's former side RB Leipzig are reported to be interested, along with Premier League Giants Nottingham Forest.
