Italian clubs have spent big this summer. Not only Juventus, but both the Milan clubs have tried their best to sign top quality players. Having said that, the Serie A giants find themselves stacked in the corner, when big Premier League clubs enter the foray.
AC Milan were thought to be one of the many clubs who had shown an interest in Witsel this summer. The Belgian midfielder, who currently plays for Zenit, has expressed his desire to move elsewhere, with Premier League thought to be his preferred destination.
The Rossonerri were planning to sign him by putting a good offer on the table, but it seems, they were left out of the race.
