Arsenal target Steven N’Zonzi admits Sevilla career is over following furious bust-up with boss Eduardo Berizzo

French midfielder hasn't featured for Spaniards after being subbed at half-time during 3-3 draw with Liverpool last month

STEVEN N’ZONZI admits he wants to quit Sevilla after a bust-up with boss Eduardo Berizzo.

The Arsenal and Everton target was left fuming after being subbed at half-time during his side’s 3-3 Champions League draw with Liverpool last month.

N’Zonzi has yet to make a matchday squad since and has now revealed he’s looking for a fresh start in January.

Arsenal are believed to be keen on the Frenchman, who has a £35million release clause, with Everton also monitoring his situation.

Juventus are said to be tracking N’Zonzi as well, and the 28-year-old is keeping his options open regarding a new destination.

N’Zonzi told France Football: “The coach pointed the finger at me [during the Liverpool game]. I will not repeat it, but his words affected me.

“Publicly, he said in future he would only select players who fit his vision for football. What does that mean?

“Whether in a 4-3-3, 3-5-2 or any other formation, a player must adapt to what his coach demands and I have always done it.

“The fact I was always professional despite the circumstances, that I always did my job, I found it unfair.

“My future is clearly away from Seville. The only thing that disappoints me is the way it has ended.”
