Sevilla secure N’Zonzi signing

Sevilla have completed the signing of Steven N’Zonzi from Stoke City, according to the Express.

The Europa League winners have paid £7m for the midfielder, who has spent the last three seasons at the Britannia Stadium, having signed from Blackburn Rovers in the summer of 2012.

During his time with the Potters, the 26 year old missed just three league games, racking up one hundred and twenty appearances for the club in all competitions, scoring seven goals.

Internationally, he has six caps for France’s U21 but is yet to be recognised at senior level.
He will now get to ply his trade in Europe’s top competition, with Sevilla the first Europa League winners to qualify for the Champions League.

Mark Hughes guided Stoke City to a ninth place finish last season, and they can be backed at a price of 1/1 to finish in the top half of the table in the 2015/16 campaign.
