Arsenal & Barcelona told N'Zonzi will cost €40m
World Cup winner Steven N'Zonzi will not be leaving Sevilla for less than the €40 million (£35m/$47m) stated in his buyout clause, according to the club's director of football Joaquin Caparros.
N'Zonzi, who played the last 35 minutes of France's 4-2 victory over Croatia in the World Cup final on Sunday, has been linked with a transfer to Arsenal or Barcelona but Caparros claimed no offers were on the table for the 29-year-old.
The former Blackburn Rovers and Stoke City midfielder joined Sevilla in 2015 and has made 90 La Liga appearances in three seasons at Estadio Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan and Caparros said he hoped N'Zonzi would remain at the club for at least two more years.
