Tottenham to hijack Chelsea's Xavi Simons deal?

Tottenham Hotspur are hoping to hijack Chelsea's move for Xavi Simons after missing out on signing Eberechi Eze, who joined their arch-rivals Arsenal. The Blues have been interested in Simons for quite some time now, while the Dutch international is also keen on moving to Stamford Bridge. However, with Chelsea also showing interest in Fermin Lopez, Spurs could swoop in and secure Simons' transfer.
