"Aaron's career speaks for itself, both in terms of his quality as a player and his character," Stoke sporting director Jonathan Walters said.

"To have played almost 600 games at the level that he has says everything about how well Aaron looks after himself, how reliable he is, and how much trust managers have consistently placed in him throughout his career."
