Zonz set for Spanish escape

Steven N’Zonzi looks to be finally stropping his way out of Ewood Park after lining up a move on loan to Spanish side Sevilla.


After slapping a fairly extortionate £10m price tag on his head offers have been very sparse in forthcoming for the lanky want away midfield man and after further discussions with the agent of the player over the last few days it has been decided that Zonz will be allowed to leave on a temporary basis.


N’Zonzi is loath to stay at Rovers much longer as he doesn’t want to play under Steve Kean and feels his talents are better suited to the top divisions as opposed to a season being smashed around at London Road and the KC Stadium.


It now looks as if he is set to get his wish with Sevilla keen on taking him on a season long loan.


There should be a few provisos added to the deal with a January recall option a possibility in case the circumstances at Ewood Park change, as the powers that be are not ruling out the player seeing his current deal out at the end of the 2012/13 season.


That and they don’t want to just sell him on the cheap.
