Sky Sport Germany reported that negotiations were happening between the Blues and the Bundesliga club, the two sides were about to reach an agreement. Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano reported that Simons did not practice with his teammates on Friday because he wanted to leave and move to Stamford Bridge.
The Dutch player played for 28 teams to delete all information related to RB Leipzig from his biography on his Instagram, clearly showing that his future was no longer attached to the German team.
Leipzig will play with Atalanta in a friendly match before the season and Simons is not named in the team. Romano describes negotiations between Chelsea and Leipzig are in an advanced stage, but the Blues still have a lot of work to do to complete the deal.
Sky Sport said that Chelsea had to sell players before being able to sign a contract with Simons, after spending more than 200 million pounds for contracts this summer, with names like Joao Pedro, Jamie Gittens, Liam Delap and Estevao.
They have collected a significant amount of money through the sale of Noni Madueke, Joao Felix, Djorde Petrovic, Kepa Arrizabalaga and other players, but are still seeking to sell more. Armando Broja moved to Burnley, while Marc Gui, Ben Chilwell, Raheem Sterling and Christopher Nkunku are also looking for a new stop.
