Check out all the transfer talk from Stoke throughout the summer.


Check out all the transfer talk from Stoke throughout the summer.

* The power has shifted from Tom back to Joe, so here I am. My first revelation, if you can call it that, is that Aruna Dindane is leaving Lens this summer. "Why would I care?" I hear you murmur. Well, if you're a Villa, Spurs or Stoke fan he's been linked to all your teams.

* Tony Pulis wants to see Liam Lawrence sign a new deal with Stoke. Click here and let us know if you agree with him. Personally, I think Lawrence is a bit of a legend.

* Gregory Vignal, who was so good that he got brought on and then taken off in the same half for Liverpool (no doubt resting him), has revealed Stoke have enquired for his services. Full story here...

* Stoke fans can rest assured. Tony Pulis has rubbished reports linking keeper Thomas Sorensen with Bayern Munich. Tony Pulis has also had his say about claims he wants to lure Paul Scholes away from Manchester United. Click here for more.

* Bayern Munich have seemingly ruled out a move for Stoke keeper Thomas Sorensen. Yes, you heard right! More here.

* Stoke fans, we haven't heard a lot about your club in recent days so, by way of apology, I bring you the news that Tony Pulis is targeting Real Mallorca star Juan Arango. Full story here.

* Stoke City and Blackburn Rovers have been watching Bosnia's Senijad Ibricic, a 23-year-old attacking midfielder from Hadjuk Split, and Borisa Pandzu, according to reports in the Balkans.

* Under-21 international Andres Vasquez has denied reports that he is on the brink of moving to Stoke. Not heard of him myself but can't help thinking that The Potters will need plenlty of reinforcements this summer despite a cracking first season in the top flight. I reckon both Birmingham and Wolves could make a real fist of staying up next year. Naive of me?

* Stoke chairman Peter Coates says he is willing to dip his hands into his pockets to fund a signing spree this summer. Any ideas City fans? Doesn't seem like Mario Mandzukic is too keen? More here.

* Mario Mandzukic is the latest player being linked with Stoke. He is the striker who scored for Croatia in the 4-1 defeat to England last year. There are rumours in his homeland of a record bid from Tony Pulis's Potters but Werder Bremen are favourites and he would prefer to go to the Bundesliga.

* Andres Vasquez, the Peruvian who was linked with Stoke City over the weekend, has confirmed he has an offer from the Premier League club after his contract at FC Zurich expired.

* Stoke fans, it appears as though Salif Diao could be leaving the club as he claims he has a number of offers on the table. Would you be sad to see him go? See the full story here.

* A line reaches us from The Stoke Sentinel where Andy Griffin has confirmed that he will be leaving the club after falling out with manager Tony Pulis. That's a surprising one, no? He claims it has nothing to do with his famous spat with Ricardo Fuller.

* Danny Higginbotham has pledged his future to Stoke despite being linked with Ipswich and a chance to work with hard task-master Roy Keane again.

* Speaking of Tony Pulis' side, they've offered Salif Diao a new one-year contract. Tough times for Vincent Pericard, Tom Thorley, Jimmy Phillips and Marc Grocott however, who've all been released at The Britannia Stadium. 

* The latest in our shopping list feature focuses on Stoke. We've idenitified a few potential transfer targets for The Potters, have a look and make your own nominations...

* Liam Lawrence is busy talking to Stoke about a new contract amid reports linking him with a move to Portsmouth. Guess what? He's been talking about it right here.
