Journalist Akram Konor revealed that the Saudi clubs Al-Ahli and Al-Hilal have entered into a fierce competition to sign the Dutch player Xavi Simons, who plays for RB Leipzig, during the current summer transfer window.

The 22-year-old player has become a target for major clubs in the Middle East, particularly teams in the Roshan League, following his impressive performances with the German team.

Konor confirmed that Xavi Simons has not yet made a final decision regarding his future, amid increasing interest from both European and Gulf clubs alike.

The market value of the Dutch star is estimated at around £95 million, making him one of the most expensive players linked with a move to the Roshan League.

The player is also on the radar of Premier League clubs, as several teams are seeking to strengthen their squads with a talented and exceptional attacking player.
