Football transfer rumours: Manchester City to sign Xavi Simons?

Manchester City is reportedly set to sign Xavi Simons, a forward from RB Leipzig and the Netherlands, potentially hijacking Chelsea's move for the player. The club's new director of football, Hugo Viana, is said to be actively pursuing the transfer. Additionally, Manchester City is allegedly attempting to reunite members of the 2021 France Olympic squad. The club has already signed Rayan Cherki and is now being linked with Monaco midfielder Maghnes Akliouche as part of this strategy. The article notes that Manchester City has been unusually busy this summer, with a lot of players coming in and out of the club. The report is described as a "tall tale" or rumor, and the details are considered unconfirmed at this stage.
