No Witsel, Luiz Adriano for Milan

By Football Italia staff

Milan has reportedly been turned down by Zenit St Petersburg's Axel Witsel and Shakhtar Donetsk's Luiz Adriano.

After failing to secure Geoffrey Kondogbia and Jackson Martinez, the Rossoneri are being faced with more closed doors.

According to Tuttosport, the most recent reports about Witsel contradict earlier claims that the Belgian midfielder already had a deal with il Diavolo.

The publication states that the player turned down Milan and said his preference was to play in the Premier League, or else for Juventus should he join Serie A.

The Gazzetta dello Sport further reports that Luiz Adriano is no longer an option.

The Brazilian reportedly found a deal with Al-Ahli in the United Arab Emirates and will be leaving Europe.
