Steven N’Zonzi puts Premier League clubs on alert with ex-Stoke ace set to leaving Sevilla following boss bust-up
Former Stoke midfielder has been forced to train alone after he stormed out of the stadium during Sevilla's clash with Liverpool
SEVILLA could sell Steven N'Zonzi following a bust-up with the manager.
The ex-Stoke man was hooked off at half time during his side's dramatic 3-3 draw against Liverpool last month.
Sevilla were 3-0 behind after the first 45 minutes and N'Zonzi was furious that manager Eduardo Berizzo subbed him instead of team-mate Guido Pizarro.
AS report that the France midfielder showered and then left the stadium instead of watching his side's remarkable comeback.
N'Zonzi then missed training the following day and was left out of the matchday squads to face Villarreal and Cartagena in the cup.
He has been forced to train alone and his relationship with his manager is thought to be irreparable.
The 28-year-old was heavily linked with a move away from the Spanish club last summer with Arsenal and Leicester interested.
He has a contract until 2020 but refused to commit to Sevilla when asked about his future last month.

“I love the Premier League. I really like the Premier League, this is where I started at a good level.
“I had a great time there but I don’t know what is going to happen in the future.”
N'Zonzi won his first France cap in November and now has his sights set on a World Cup spot for Les Bleus next summer.
