REVEALED: Saido Berahino lands bumper deal at Stoke

Former West Brom striker Saido Berahino has landed a bumper deal at Stoke City.

The Daily Mail says Berahino ended his Hawthorns hell last night and hit the jackpot when he signed a five-and-a-half-year contract at Stoke City worth £70,000 a week.

Stoke moved to sign the unsettled West Bromwich Albion striker, 23, for an initial £12million fee rising to £15m if he meets performance targets.

But the Potters were forced to fight off serious late interest from Watford to get their man.

Albion had rejected Stoke's first offer but a breakthrough in negotiations came at around 2pm on Friday.
