Chelsea's Xavi Simons deal in danger! RB Leipzig refusing to take back Blues outcasts in deal as talks continue for Dutch forward

Chelsea's swap deal for Simons hits major roadblock RB Leipzig demand £60m — reject all swap offers Agent Ali Barat working to unlock transfer breakthrough Follow GOAL on WhatsApp! 🟢📱 WHAT HAPPENED? As per The Sun, Chelsea have offered multiple players in exchange for Simons, including Armando Broja and Carney Chukwuemeka. However, RB Leipzig are only interested in a cash deal worth £60m ($79m) for the Dutch international. Agent Ali Barat, who has good relations with Chelsea, is said to be working behind the scenes to try and rescue the transfer. THE BIGGER PICTURE Simons joined RB Leipzig permanently from Paris Saint-Germain in January after a loan stint with the Bundesliga side. His decision to leave comes after Leipzig failed to secure Champions League qualification. Chelsea, meanwhile, are making other moves in the market, sending Kendry Paez, Mike Penders, and Marc Guiu out on loan to open up the budget to sign Simons. DID YOU KNOW? RB Leipzig paid a club-record £43m for Simons, with add-ons potentially raising the deal to £70m. As such, Die Roten Bullen are not ready to sell the Dutchman for less than £60m. The Blues still view Simons as a priority target for the summer, despite the recent setback. WHAT NEXT FOR SIMONS? Negotiations are expected to continue as Chelsea weigh up whether to meet RB Leipzig's asking price for Simons. The Blues could return with a fresh offer later in the window if Barat finds a breakthrough. Meanwhile, other midfield options may be explored as a backup plan.

CSX Corporation (CSX) Might Be Bought Too, Says Jim Cramer

We recently published . CSX Corporation (NASDAQ:CSX) is one of the stocks Jim Cramer recently discussed. CSX Corporation (NASDAQ:CSX)'s shares have gained 9.8% year-to-date, and like other railroads, it has also been a frequent feature of Cramer's morning show. The CNBC TV host has discussed the firm in the context of the emerging trend of mergers in the railroad industry. His previous comments about CSX Corporation (NASDAQ:CSX) have hinted at hesitance at the firm's management for the deal. This time, after railroad giant Union Pacific announced that it would acquire Norfolk Southern, Cramer wondered whether Burlington North would buy CSX: 'But the fact is, they were never going to go against each other. That's not, the rails, stop doing that years ago. So, I look at this and I say, Vena makes sense. The only issue is, okay, so, does Burlington North have to go buy CSX? And they do.' Copyright: meinzahn / 123RF Stock Photo Previously, the CNBC TV host discussed CSX Corporation (NASDAQ:CSX) and the dynamics of the railroad industry: 'Well look they have a direct corridor, CSX, direct corridor connects South East Mexico, Texas, US Southeast. That's Union Pacific. Why would you let that happen? Why would you make it so that you have two railroads that have that area and not make it so that there's one. And I think Joe Hinrichs, the CEO of CSX, might not want this deal. He's young. He took over the railroad. He just got there.' While we acknowledge the potential of CSX as an investment, our conviction lies in the belief that some AI stocks hold greater promise for delivering higher returns and have limited downside risk.
