Tottenham Hotspur have “asked to be informed” about the situation of PSV Eindhoven striker Xavi Simons, according to Fabrizio Romano, as Spurs consider a transfer.
Spurs chairman Daniel Levy has a lot on his plate at N17 with the appointment of new manager Ange Postecoglou, who is expected to start work on July 1.
Despite this, it has been reported that Postecoglou has already held transfer strategy discussions with Levy, during which they discussed prospective summer targets.
Tottenham are rumored to be looking for a new goalkeeper to replace Hugo Lloris, with the north Londoners reportedly close to signing Empoli goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario.
Meanwhile, the capture of a new centre-back or two is seen as a top priority, and there are reports of Tottenham advancing in talks to re-sign Clement Lenglet on a permanent deal from Barcelona.
However, as Spurs hold a serious interest in Leicester City star James Maddison, supporters could well expect a few additions in more attacking areas of the pitch.
Lucas Moura will leave the club and Arnaut Danjuma has returned to parent club Villarreal, meaning the Lilywhites need more forwards.
As a result, alongside Maddison, reliable journalist Romano has shared news on Twitter of Spurs’ fondness for PSV forward Simons.
The 20-year-old has been in excellent form in the Eredivisie, causing Tottenham to inquire about a possible move for Simons.
Postecoglou’s side, along with Manchester United, Arsenal, Brighton, Borussia Dortmund, and RB Leipzig, have “asked to be informed” of his condition, as PSG have yet to activate their inexpensive buy-back clause for Simons.
The Dutch international has been crucial for PSV, with more shots on goal and successful take-ons per 90 minutes than any other member of their current roster (WhoScored).
With 19 goals and eight assists in the Dutch top division last season, former Tottenham Hotspur player Rafael van der Vaart has projected him to be a global beater.
