The five -year Simons agreement includes an option to extend his stay of an additional two years, and if the Northern Londoners take this option, it would be the longest contract ever awarded to a Spurs player.
During his first two games, the playmaker has already shown real glimpses of his quality and left the brand with his first assist for the Spurs just 47 minutes after his debut – the installation of Pope Sarr for the Senegalese to return to the house of a corner.
Simons also started his first match in the Champions League for the Spurs earlier this week, and again impressed with flashes, even if he was largely unconvincing and lucky not to be sent for a second yellow after having dropped the old Flop d’Arsenal Nicolas Pepe.
Thomas Frank has chosen to start Simons on the left side during each of his first two games, and it will be intriguing to see if the ex-PSG sensation will be played more centrally in a role of “Maddison”.
Lucas Bergvall has dazzled for the Spurs so far this season and Frank will be eager that the Swedish does not lose momentum, so we may see wider at the moment.
In any case, the starlet, which was also once in the famous La Masia academy in Barcelona, is underway for celebrity in N17.
“I heard the Tottenham coach give a whole Spiel on Simons, saying that he can really play on the left wing,” said journalist Suleyman Ozturk earlier this week.
“And that’s where he plays now, and you can see that when he gets the ball, there is a change in his mind, and he goes, for example, in Richarlison. There is a lot of creativity there, and I think that once it will come out in a few weeks, there is going to be a feeling in Tottenham.”
Interestingly, Simons would formerly be about to join Chelsea, and the super-agent Ali Barat has now revealed the “key” reason for which the Spurs ended up winning the race.
Why Xavi Simons chose to join Tottenham on Chelsea
Addressing RMC Sport, Barat says that Frank’s influence has been a vital factor in the persuasion of Simons to sign for Tottenham above Enzo Maresca.
“With Xavi, the key was to clearly understand his priorities and make sure that the club he joined shared his long-term vision,” he said.
“Xavi has a very strong mentality and a great personality. Tottenham and Chelsea are both fantastic clubs with solid projects, and there was a real interest on both sides.
“But Chelsea was always clear with us; They had certain constraints that made opinion difficult in discussions difficult.
“So when discussions with Tottenham started, it has become clear that it would be a project that would be perfectly suited for Xavi, and I think the discussion he had with Thomas Frank was really the key to Xavi’s decision.”
Frank guided the Lilywhites to four victories of six games in all competitions since he took the Angel Postcoglou relay, and taking into account the revelation of Barat, Tottenham’s decision to name the Dane is increasingly like the right decision each week.
Similar to Angel, the tactician seems to have a talent to convince the most exciting talents in Europe, with his predecessor helping Levy to sign Mathys like via a zoom call pitch.
After the long layoffs of James Maddison and Dejan Kulusvski, the arrival of Simons could be crucial in the pursuit of spurs for silverware and qualification for the Champions League for next season.
It was a matter of declaration, and beat the London Chelsea rivals to his signature was the additional Cherry roof.
