According to the latest reports, Axel Witsel has agreed personal terms with Napoli, so a move from Zenit seems imminent.

The Belgium international is currently on vacation in Sardinia and his agent visited him there today to discuss the offer.

Calciomercato.it claim Witsel accepted the four-year contract with option for a fifth at €2.7m per year, plus €0.5m in bonuses.

This gives Napoli the all-clear to discuss the transfer with Zenit for €23m plus €2m add-ons.

That equals the offer agreed with Everton, although the Toffees had failed to agree personal terms with the player.

It’s possible that was less down to money and more that Napoli are in the Champions League.

Chelsea have also been linked with Witsel, but the Partenopei appear to be on the verge of completing this transfer.

He would be reunited with fellow Belgium international Dries Mertens at the Stadio San Paolo.
