Italian giants AS Roma have signed France midfielder Steven N’Zonzi from Sevilla on a four-year deal.
N’Zonzi, who was part of the France squad that won this summer’s World Cup in Russia, moves to the Italian capital for an initial 26.65million euros (£23million), which could potentially rise by four million euros.
Speaking to the club’s official website, he said: “I feel very happy to be here, and to be a new Roma player.
“I always want to improve – regardless of age, the most important thing is to give your best and work hard.
“I want to do that, to become a better player and help the team with my play and experience.”
N’Zonzi spent six years in English football, first with Blackburn, who brought him in from French club Amiens in 2009, and then Stoke.
He was also linked to Arsenal, with reports suggesting a possible reunion with Unai Emery, who coached him at Sevilla.
