The move will provide Thomas Frank a major boost in his forward options after a frustrating window of near misses.

They had targeted Nottingham Forest midfielder Morgan Gibbs-White and Crystal Palace talisman Eberechi Eze. However, the negotiations didn’t turn out to be fruitful for Spurs, as Forest blocked Gibbs-White’s exit before he signed a new contract at the City Ground, and Arsenal successfully hijacked their rivals’ Eze interest in the 11th hour.

Tottenham have long been interested in Simons, but there was a feeling that he was out of their reach this summer, especially with Chelsea having been working to sign him.
