 Stoke City have signed striker Wilfried Bony on a season-long loan deal from Premier League rivals Manchester City. Ivorian Bony, 27, has made 15 league starts since joining City for £28m from Swansea in January 2015, but had not featured under new boss Pep Guardiola. The Potters have also signed Derby goalkeeper Lee Grant, 33, on loan until January. Meanwhile, Porto and Netherlands defender Bruno Martins Indi, 24, is in talks with the club over a move. "Bringing Wilfried in was a no-brainer for us," said Potters manager Mark Hughes. "He has power, speed and very good physical attributes." Stoke targeted Ivory Coast international Bony as there had been no development in their attempt to sign West Brom forward Saido Berahino. Last week, West Ham United manager Slaven Bilic said he was interested in signing Bony, who has three years left to run on his contract at Etihad Stadium. Guardian |
