Inter are reportedly closing in on Zenit midfielder Axel Witsel for €22m plus bonuses after Napoli abandoned the move.

The Belgium international had been on the verge of joining Napoli last week, but the club suddenly pulled the plug after Coach Maurizio Sarri pointed out he didn’t suit his system.

Although Everton, Liverpool and Arsenal have been heavily linked with Witsel, it’s widely reported he would prefer a Serie A move.

Tuttosport claims today that he is very close to joining Inter for €22m plus bonuses.
