However, Sky Italia is now reporting that talks have progressed well and now the midfielder is also ready to join Roberto Mancini’s squad.

The deal is thought to be worth €60m plus bonuses for both players, and could be officially finalised tomorrow.

The Giallorossi have already sold Mohamed Salah to Liverpool for €42m, a fee which could eventually rise to €50m if bonuses are activated.

That means the Lupi will have brought in over €100m for the trio if the Zenit deal goes ahead, though they will now have to replace three of their key players from last season.
