Manchester United are lining up a shock move for Netherlands forward Xavi Simons, as per reports from The Sun.

The 21-year-old spent last season on loan at RB Leipzig from Paris Saint-Germain. He has shone for Netherlands at Euro 2024, most recently scoring the opener in Wednesday’s 2-1 defeat against England.

PSG re-signed Simons from PSV in 2023 for £5m, but The Sun claim they would be looking for around £70m to let him go.

United are also in for two other members of the Netherlands squad as they finalise deals for Matthijs de Ligt and Joshua Zirkzee.
