Chelsea to move for Axel Witsel

Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich will reportedly fly to Russia to discuss a summer move for Belgian star Axel Witsel.

Witsel has recently hinted that he could leave Zenit St.Petersburg for a fresh challenge elsewhere.

According to RTBF, Blues owner Abramovich will travel to St.Petersburg in hope of sealing a summer deal for the former Benfica midfielder.

The 26-year-old scored six goals in 39 games for the Russian giants last term.
