Stoke City boss Mark Hughes is shopping for a new right-back.

With over two months left in the transfer window Hughes is happy to remain patient, but Stoke are also keeping a tight grip on other potential wing targets, says The Sentinel.

A right back also remains on the radar following the recent failure to pip Southampton to the signature of Sporting Lisbon's Cedric Soares.

Targets both here and overseas are being monitored, but Hughes also has the option of leaning on Phil Bardsley, Geoff Cameron and Marc Wilson at right back.
