Stoke City are chasing Tottenham striker Peter Crouch.
The Daily Mail says Stoke manager Tony Pulis is launching a £10million bid for Tottenham's Crouch as he attempts to land an experienced Premier League striker.
Pulis has missed out on West Ham's Carlton Cole and seen talks over Birmingham's Cameron Jerome stall.
Stoke are understood to have failed to match wage demands in both instances and will have to rethink if they are to sign Crouch, who is on around £70,000 a week.
