USA international striker Edson Buddle is under consideration at Stoke City.
The Daily Mail says Buddle, 29, has been offered an extended trial at Birmingham but is keen to sort out a move quickly and Stoke are interested along with Everton and Wolves - who missed out on his compatriot Robbie Findley after he opted to join Nottingham Forest.
The striker is available from David Beckham's LA Galaxy.
