PSV Eindhoven forward Xavi Simons is the subject of 'crazy interest' from Liverpool, Arsenal and Chelsea, according to reports in Spain.
Jurgen Klopp is expected to be set for a busy summer as he looks to rebuild his under-performing squad for a fresh assault on the Premier League next season. The German will primarily be focused on rejuvenating his midfield, but with Roberto Firmino set to bring his Anfield career to a close next month, alternative attacking options could also be on the cards.
And according to Fichajes, the Reds are amongst the trio of Premier League clubs who would be prepared to bring the 19-year-old Dutchman to England next season.

Simons joined Eindhoven from Paris Saint-Germain last summer and has made a huge impact in Ruud van Nistelrooy's team, scoring 17 goals and weighing in with nine assists. The teenager signed a five-year deal with the Eredivisie side but could find the temptation of a big-money move to the Premier League too much to resist.
Classed as a versatile attacking midfielder, Simons can play several different positions around a main central striker. His performances earned him a call-up to the Netherlands' World Cup squad in November, eventually making his full international debut against the USA in the 3-1 Round of 16 victory, in Qatar.
Included in Goal's "NxGn 2020" list of 50 best wonderkids in world football, Simons has over four million followers on Instagram, making him instantly marketable off the pitch, as well as talented on it.
One stumbling block for Liverpool could be the possibility of a return to PSG, who included a buy-back clause in the Dutchman's transfer to Eindhoven. But with Kylian Mbappe, Neymar Jnr and Lionel Messi to contend with, Simons could prefer the excitement of a fresh challenge in the Premier League over a return to Paris.
