Arsenal will reportedly have to fend off interest from the likes of Everton and West Ham United if they are to sign Sevilla midfielder Steven N'Zonzi this summer.
The Gunners are understood to have opened talks with Sevilla over a move for the former Stoke City man, who played under new Arsenal boss Unai Emery during his time in Seville.
However, French outlet Le10 Sport reports that they will face competition from Premier League rivals Everton and West Ham for his signature.
No official bids have been made for the 29-year-old yet due to his ongoing involvement in the World Cup with France, where he has helped Les Bleus to the semi-finals.
However, N'Zonzi in understood to be open to the idea of returning to England this summer, and Arsenal are hopeful of completing a move before the transfer deadline in one month's time.
