Steven N’Zonzi spotted in London as Premier league move draws closer

Arsenal and Premier League rivals Liverpool could arguably do with strengthening in the middle of the park, and reported transfer target Steven N’Zonzi may be on his way to the Premier League.

While Merseyside club Liverpool face the threat of losing German Emre Can, who will see his present contract expire at the end of the campaign, it’s a continuing criticism of Arsenal that they lack good and solid midfielders to compete for major titles.

The France international midfielders physical presence in the midfield position provides cover for the defence and also have the ability to burst forward, the versatile midfielder would make a good addition to either side.

According to reports, as seen in a recent tweet, N’Zonzi has travelled to the City of London to sort out his playing future with a departure expected.

Also, The Mirror says that the player’s possible departure is down to a fallout with club manager Eduardo Berizzo, but for either Premier League suitors to prise him back to the Premier League, they’ll possibly have to cough out his £35m buyout clause in his current contract.

The fact that the Nzonzi, 28, is back on England soil with question marks over his Sevilla future would suggest to football fans that he may desire a return to England.
