On Thursday, the sports director of Barcelona, Deco, met Simons's brother Faustino and the midfielder's adviser, Ali Barat, at a hotel in the Netherlands. However, Barcelona will have difficulty recruiting Simons because RB Leipzig wants to immediately collect a large amount of money from the Dutch player, about 70 million euros.

Arsenal and Chelsea are believed to be monitoring the situation of Simons at RB Leipzig, but has not made an official proposal. According to Bild, Simons wants to play in the Premier League and are asking advisers Ali Barat to take him to Chelsea.
