Salif Diao admits he's leaving Stoke City at the end of the season.

Diao, who has played 106 times for Stoke, told The Sentinel: "I had a discussion with the gaffer but it doesn't look like I will be offered a new contract as a player, so I will be looking to move.

"They offered me an assistant coaching role, or coaching the U21s next season. But I think it is too early, because I haven't earned my coaching badges yet.

"In my head, I want to carry on playing for one or two more years. Hopefully, I will get something somewhere else.

"The family are settled here, so the priority is to stay in England, but if I get an offer from abroad worth looking at, then I will check it out."
