Champions elimination may precipitate selling Witsel – Elimination of Zenit’s Champions, on Tuesday, at the hands of Benfica, could lead the Russian champion to accept the sale of Belgian international average Axel Witsel ( former player of the eagle) in the summer transfer window market.
The possibility is advanced by Quentin Droussin in ‘Sportmagazine’ (Belgium) on Friday, and justified by the framework of several factors: the alleged high frustration at not reach further in Europe, the alleged frustration of fans emblem of St. Petersburg by successes fall short of the desired for the hundreds of millions of euros invested in the team’s reinforcements … and the dissatisfaction of the own ‘boss’ of the club and sponsor, Gazprom.
It is recalled that Witsel left the light in September 2012 towards St. Petersburg in exchange for 40 million euros into the coffers of the SAD of Benfica.
Witsel signed a valid contract with Zenit for five seasons: lack one year and three months and, as noted by the Belgian publication, the champion of Russia or renewed until the summer with the player, or accepts transact it in this transfer window as a last chance to make a large fit … or run the risk of leaving the international talent next season without being reimbursed the appropriate financial compensation for such large investment.
The newspaper’s home country player also advances the player expect more sporty Zenit project, but the coveted new title in European competition after the League 2008 Europe was hamstrung by red hot, with victories in the Light (1- 0) and St. Petersburg (2-1).
It is recalled that Gazprom, which named Sergei Fursenko President of Zenit in 2005, agreed to sell, after the triumph in European competition, stars like Arshavin, Pogrebnyak or Timochuk but invested many hundreds of millions of players.
Hulk (former FC Porto) and Witsel (former Benfica) arrived in 2012, the year that Zenit has invested more than EUR 100 million in signings. But before the club already invested 30 million in players like Bruno Alves or Lukovic, in addition to the million-dollar signings Kerzhakov, Michael Lumb or coaches as the Italian Luciano Spalleti and the Portuguese André Villas Boas.
It’s time to Witsel and the club, together or separate, decide what is best for both, and the ‘divorce’ (transfer of the average Belgian, 27) may happen in the summer, as the best solution for both parties. Or the possible use solution to save face and according to the ambition of the two sides.
