Chelsea in talks to sign Sevilla midfielder Steven N’Zonzi

Chelsea are reportedly keen to signing Sevilla midfielder Steven N’Zonzi.

The former Stoke City ace has impressed for the La Liga outfit since arriving last summer, helping them to win the Europa League for an unprecedented third year in a row.

This has piqued the interest of incoming Blues boss Antonio Conte, but there is also competition from Leicester City according to The Sun On Sunday.

With a £21 million release clause, any transfer for the 27-year-old won’t be cheap.

However, with Nemanja Matic and John Obi Mikel criticised for their performances in the last campaign, N’Zonzi could be the man to improve the Londoners’ in defensive midfield position.
