Inter are trying to beat Everton and Liverpool for Zenit St Petersburg's Axel Witsel.

The player will not be going to Napoli, but he has not necessarily turned down Serie A, where he still enjoys the courtship of Roberto Mancini.

The Gazzetta dello Sport reports that the Nerazzurri are pressing Witsel's father and agent to accept a move, and that a deal could be closed over the next seven days.

Inter are trying to beat Everton and Liverpool for Zenit St Petersburg's Axel Witsel.

The player will not be going to Napoli, but he has not necessarily turned down Serie A, where he still enjoys the courtship of Roberto Mancini.

The Gazzetta dello Sport reports that the Nerazzurri are pressing Witsel's father and agent to accept a move, and that a deal could be closed over the next seven days.

The player's consent is crucial as an agreement in principle has already been found with Zenit, who would take €22m for the transfer.

His wife is said to be pushing Witsel towards the city of Milan, too.

Coach Roberto Mancini considers the Belgian to be perfect to flank Geoffrey Kondogbia in his 4-2-3-1.
