Chelsea’s summer business is far from finished, with new signings still on the agenda — www.naijnaira.com reports.
Fabrizio Romano told followers that talks with RB Leipzig for Xavi Simons are “advanced,” though the Blues want to finalise player exits before striking a deal. Simons has informed Leipzig he only wants a Stamford Bridge move, but the German side are holding out for around £60m, with Chelsea aiming for £50m.
According to TeamTalk, Alejandro Garnacho is also in their sights, with United valuing him at £40m. Chelsea, however, believe a £30m plus add-ons deal could work, taking advantage of his current exile from Old Trafford plans.
Enzo Maresca confirmed both Leverkusen and Milan friendlies will be used to test tactics and share minutes ahead of the Premier League opener. Wesley Fofana has returned to training and could feature against Crystal Palace.
