Mark Hughes is keen to hear from Stoke City.

The Mirror says Hughes features on Stoke's shortlist to succeed Tony Pulis with Gus Poyet, Roberto Di Matteo, and Roberto Martinez.

It is believed Stoke will approach their targets next week, with a view to making an appointment by the end of the month, and Hughes would be keen to speak to the Potters.

The former Wales, Manchester City and Fulham boss has been out of work since being sacked by QPR last autumn and would relish a return to the Premier League.
