The Basque club is keen to keep Witsel in LaLiga due to his versatility on the field. Negotiations began soon after Witsel's Atletico deal ended.
La Real's management is eager to add Witsel's skills to their squad. However, other clubs are also interested in signing him.
Witsel has received offers from Standard Liège, a club he grew up with, as well as teams in the Saudi Pro League and MLS. Despite this, he currently prefers to stay in Spain and LaLiga.
