Juventus' attempts to lure Axel Witsel away from Zenit before the transfer deadline may have failed, but the midfielder is prepared to wait.
Axel Witsel is prepared to wait for a move away from Zenit after Juventus' attempts to sign the Belgium international ended in failure on Wednesday.
Witsel has been linked with a host of clubs after impressing in Russia, with Premier League heavyweights Liverpool and Chelsea reportedly at the front of the line.
Inter, Napoli and Roma were also thought to be interested in the 27-year-old but Juve emerged as the favorite as the deadline approached.
