Belgium Midfielder Axel Witsel Set for Medical Ahead of Potential Borussia Dortmund Move

Belgium midfielder Axel Witsel is understood to be set for a return to Europe after moving to Chinese club Tianjin Quanjian last January.

The 29-year-old is a reported target for German supremos Borussia Dortmund. And, according to rtbf.be, he will have a medical with the club on Monday ahead of a move to the Bundesliga side.

The above source reports that Dortmund will part with around €20m in order to get the deal over the line.

Witsel was part of the Red Devils side that finished third place in this year's World Cup and his move to China did not see him excluded from Roberto Martinez's plans for the tournament.
