Liverpool is preparing an £80 million bid for RB Leipzig's Xavi Simons, who is also being pursued by Manchester United. The 21-year-old Dutchman is seen as a potential replacement for Mohamed Salah, whose contract situation raises concerns for the club. While Simons has had a successful season with seven goals and five assists in the Bundesliga, there are doubts whether he could immediately fill Salah's shoes. Given Liverpool's current standing, Simons may prefer a transfer there over United, who appear less stable in their pursuit of trophies this season.
Liverpool are reportedly preparing to bid around 80million to seal the transfer of RB Leipzig star and Manchester United target Xavi Simons.
Simons has seven goals and five assists in 18 Bundesliga games so far this season, so it's easy to see why big clubs are tracking him at the moment.
As much as Liverpool fans would be excited by the arrival of a talent like Simons, and justifiably so, the priority surely has to be keeping Salah.
Simons would surely prefer Liverpool to United right now, with the Red Devils looking like a bit of a mess and a long way from challenging for the title.
