Overview
- Spurs confirmed the 22-year-old has joined on a long-term contract, with multiple outlets reporting a five-year deal plus a two-year option.
- Medical and paperwork were completed Friday after Leipzig allowed Simons to travel to London to finalise the move.
- Chelsea were strongly linked earlier in the window but did not submit a formal offer, focusing instead on a deal for Alejandro Garnacho.
