Stoke City and Manchester City are currently holding talks over the transfer of Fabian Delph, according to reports from the Mirror.

Stoke are currently on the lookout for a new midfielder as Giannelli Imbula is expected to be leaving the club this summer and the Potters were said to have targeted Manchester Delph as a replacement.

City had initially been hesitant on selling Delph but they are now reported to have softened their stance and Stoke are now in talks with the Citizens over the signing of the England international for a fee of around £10million.
