Arsenal are reportedly in the chase for Blackburn Rovers midfielder Steven N'Zonzi.

Previous reports suggested that the 23-year-old was poised for an Ewood Park exit in January. However, a transfer failed to materialise.

It is understood that the Frenchman is keen on leaving the struggling Premier League side at the end of the season, with the Gunners leading the race for the playmaker, according to Sky Sports News.

While Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger is thought to be eager to land N'Zonzi, a number of clubs including Tottenham Hotspur, Chelsea and Newcastle are reportedly keeping tabs on the player.
