Sevilla are interested in Stoke City midfielder Giannelli Imbula.

Estadio Deportivo says Sevilla are eyeing Imbula as a replacement for wantaway midfielder Steven N'Zonzi. The France World Cup midfielder is a target for Arsenal and West Ham.

Meanwhile, Sevilla are making contingency plans and see Imbula, who was on-loan at Toulouse last season, as a readymade replacement.

A bid of €10m is expected to be enough to convince Stoke to sell.

Along with Imbula, Sevilla also have Sporting CP midfielder William Carvalho under consideration.
