Manchester City are looking to strengthen their midfield ahead of next season, with RB Leipzig’s Xavi Simons a top target. According to Fichajes.net, the Cityzens have tabled a €110 million bid for the talented young midfielder.
City see Simons as a potential successor to Kevin De Bruyne, who has been the driving force of the team for years. With his superb technique, vision and ability to create chances, Simons has caught the eye of many of Europe’s elite clubs. At 21, he is already regarded as one of the most promising midfielders in the world.
Under Pep Guardiola, Manchester City have always relied on creative midfielders who can control the tempo of the game and make decisive contributions at crucial moments – a role that De Bruyne has filled. Simons is believed to have all the attributes to fill that role, particularly his ability to set up attacks and work with the front line.
