Juventus, Witsel slips away: From Tolisso to Luiz Gustavo, the situation

With every probability Axel Witsel will not be a Juventus player. It appears that the midfielder from Zenit, was meant to communicate his dcision to the club to not join. The final response should come in today: the Belgian will move to China. Ready to accept the rich offer from the Siper League.

With Rincon in and Witsel who has slipped, Juve could however try to sign another midfielder. There are diverse profiles which the club likes. Although proper negotiations have yet to start. The names are those of Corentin Tolisso from Lyon, Steven N'Zonzi from Sevilla and without forgetting Roberto Gagliardini, however it is important to acknowledge that Inter have accelerated and would like to close with Atalanta for January.

If Suning were to close for Gagliardini, would let go of Luiz Gustavo (who would be a valid substitute for Gagliardini if the deal were to not be closed). Juventus could take the Brazilian into consideration. The player has a German passport and could be used in the Champions Leauge. Negotiations could be moved forward with Wolfsburg on the basis of a loan with option to buy seeing the player's desire to move.
