Leicester City transfer news: Claudio Ranieri 'confirms the speculation' linking Steven N'Zonzi with £25m Foxes transfer

Leicester City boss Claudio Ranieri has refused to be drawn on a move for former Stoke City midfielder Steven N'Zonzi - although he did 'confirm the speculation' linking the Foxes with the Frenchman.

The 27-year-old left the Potters last summer for Sevilla in a deal which was worth around £7m, and was part of Unai Emery's side who won the 2016 Europa League, beating Liverpool in the final.

Despite his success, the N'Zonzi has been linked with a return to England already - with Leicester reportedly ready to activate his £25m release-clause.
