Steven N'Zonzi Reportedly Hands in Transfer Request in Pursuit of Arsenal Move

Sevilla midfielder Steven N'Zonzi has reportedly handed in a transfer request in a bid to secure a transfer to Arsenal this summer.

According to MailOnline's Simon Jones, the Frenchman wants to be closer to his family in London as well as reunite with Arsenal boss Unai Emery, who knows all about him having won his third consecutive UEFA Europa League title with N'Zonzi at the heart of Sevilla's midfield in 2016.

The 29-year-old is featuring for France at the World Cup in Russia and hopes to have his future resolved when Les Bleus' campaign comes to an end.
