Zenit St Petersburg midfielder Axel Witsel admits ‘there have been discussions’ with Juventus as he seeks ‘a top club in a top league’.
The Turin giants have been heavily linked with the Belgian international, and the 26-year-old has confirmed Bianconeri interest.
“I’m 26, the best age to try a new experience,” Witsel explained to Sudinfo.
“I’ve always said that I didn’t want to leave Zenit without lifting the league title, and that’s done.
“My favourite league? I don’t have one, my goal is to move to a top club in a top league.
“Juventus? There have been discussions, and they’re ongoing. They’re a fantastic team with a great project, to become again what they were in the days of [Zinedine] Zidane and [Pavel] Nedved.
“The contact is ongoing, both with me and Zenit. It’s a destination that could be suitable for me.”
