Zenit push Juventus to go higher for Axel Witsel

Juventus are pursuing a deal for Zenit St Petersburg midfielder Axel Witsel.

The Belgium international is Juve's top midfield target for the summer transfer window.

Tuttosport says Juve have tabled €19 million for Witsel - and are willing to go as high as €25 million for the midfielder.

However, despite Witsel and his father eager to see the Turin move happen, Zenit are digging in their heels.

The Russian giants are refusing to sit down at the negotiating table for less than €30 million.
