Manchester City is considering a breathtaking Hijack from Chelsea’s proposed deal for Xavi Simons, understands Talksport.
The Dutchman has agreed personal conditions with the blues before a potential switch to Stamford Bridge, but the clubs still have to achieve an agreement.

This could open the door so that the city can come in and try to complete a deal yourself.
So far it is only the interest of the former Premier League master, and it probably depends on the players.
Savinho was associated with a shock transfer to Tottenham, but Talksport understands that you don’t want to sell City.
However, you can reluctantly let him go if the Brazilian urges a movement.
James Mcatee also seems to travel to Nottingham Forest, while Jack Grialish has completed a loan train to Everton.
This briefly leaves Pep Guardiola in the attack areas, and Simons’s versatility would address.
The 22-year-old is mainly an attacking midfielder, but he is also more than comfortable on both wings.
What happens to Chelsea and Simons?
When the news of this deal broke for the first time, it looked like it was moving quickly, but the two clubs still have to complete a deal.
A potential business in which Christopher Nkunku returns to RB Leipzig two years after the exchange from Germany to West -London.

Nkunku concluded in the blues in Germany in Germany in Germany after scoring 70 goals, even though the deal was confirmed last January.
His time in Chelsea was disturbed by injuries and he can leave the club after being excluded from the two friendly games before the season.
If a deal with Nkunku would pass to Leipzig, it would be separated for Simons in the other direction.
Leipzig is looking for £ 60 million to separate from Simons, while Chelsea hopes to pay just more than £ 50 million.
But things become complicated by the fact that the player came from Paris Saint-Germain to Leipzig, especially in January.
The fee was just more than £ 40 million and included around 20 million GBP of bonuses, but it is not clear how many of them were paid.
This will be the key to the price that Leipzig finally accepts for Simons, which would also apply to MAN City.
There were suggestions that Nkunku would not want to return to Leipzig, which would cause the blues some problems.
Talksport judgment: European expert Kevin Hatchard
Before the city’s interest, Hatchard said that Simons is a high -quality player that there are concerns about his attitude.
“I think he’ll go to Chelsea,” said Hatchard about the Transuropa Express.
“I think that seems to be the way the wind blows. And he is a player you’re looking for.
“I think that’s the step he will take. He was a player who was generally very good for Leipzig.
“He scores goals, he makes goals, he always tries to influence the game. He is a real puzzle, Xavi because I like to play him. I like what he brings to a game. He has really silky skills.
“He has great awareness of what is around him. He has scored some nice goals. There is a lot to like him.”
Hatchard continued: “The debate in Germany, rightly or wrongly, and I really don’t know because they hear rumors about clubs, but it would be unfair to say for myself because I don’t.
“But the debate in Germany was: Is he a team player? Does he have any hiring problems?
“Well, that could be a paper conversation. It could only be media noises, and it’s just not true, because there are some coaches who speak for him.
“But there are also coaches he alludes to, he could rather be a team player, his attitude could be different, etc.”
