The Belgium international was given permission to leave training with his country last night in order to undergo a medical and is believed to already be in Turin.

However, Sky Sport Italia and Calciomercato.com are among those suggesting there are big problems holding up the move.

Zenit seem to be demanding more money after a deal was done for €18m plus €2-3m bonuses.

It’s a dangerous game for Zenit to play, as Witsel’s contract is due to expire in June 2017.

He’ll be a free agent in a year and able to negotiate a free transfer with a club of his choosing from January.
