Stoke City are keen on Birmingham City superkid Nathan Redmond.
The Mirror says Redmond, 17, has attracted interest from Manchester City since breaking through this term at the Championship side.
The starlet has scored three goals in 22 appearances, and has even impressed at European level.
The Potters considered a joint bid for Redmond and Blues team-mate Liam Ridgewell before the transfer deadline but were unable to muster sufficient funds after failing to shift enough squad men.
Defender Ridgewell was bought by West Brom instead.
