Stoke finalise deal for Banska Bystrica defender Dionatan Teixeira

Stoke City have finalised their deal for Brazilian defender Dionatan Teixeira.

The Sentinel says the Potters have tied up a three-year deal for giant defender Dionatan Teixeira.

The 6ft 6in centre-back impressed on trial in the back end of the season and the Potters struck a deal worth about £400,000 with his club Banska Bystrica.

The 21-year-old played youth football for Brazil before switching his allegiance to Slovakia - meaning there is no work permit restriction.
