Chelsea are set to make a bid for want-away midfielder Steven N’Zonzi, according to Spanish newspaper AS, as translated by Sport Witness.
The former Blackburn man’s agent, Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan, confirmed that his client wanted to leave Sevilla last summer but he was persuaded to stay for the 2017/18 season, despite a clear conflict of interests.

Reports claim that Sevilla’s next game against Alaves will be the last time the box to box midfielder features for the La Liga side.
A Premier League return seems likely as both Chelsea and Arsenal are in the running for the 29-year-old, as the London clubs “wait for a possible negotiation”.
Sevilla are happy to sell N’Zonzi this window as they are not happy with his attitude and discipline, however, N’Zonzi has a release clause of €40 million which both interested parties are seemingly unwilling to pay.
There is talk that Sevilla are willing to lower the fee in order to offload Frenchman this summer so we’ll see if Chelsea decide to make an offer.
