Zenit St. Petersburg star Axel Witsel has been repeatedly linked with a move to Everton in the past few days.

Napoli and Inter are also said to be interested, but it now appears another club in the Premier League might be willing to take him on board for next season.

According to France Football, Premier League champions Leicester City are interested in signing Witsel.

N’Golo Kante is reportedly close to signing for Chelsea, and Ranieri now has to look for a replacement.

France Football say Witsel could leave Zenit for €20m-€25m, and it remains to be seen if Leicester are genuinely interested in signing him.

At the moment, Witsel seems to be closest to Inter, but nothing is done yet and a couple of days ago he was supposed to be signing for Napoli. Witsel rumours are always a mess.

The 27-year-old has just another year left on his contract at the Russian club, which may mean a move this time is more likely than all the other times he was in the middle of the rumour mill.
