Bruno Martins Indi is delighted with his move to Stoke City.

The 24 year-old defender knows Erik Pieters and Ibrahim Afellay from international duty with Holland, while Giannelli Imbula was a team-mate at Porto until he moved to Stoke last January.

“Yes, they said good things," said Martins Indi.

“If they do their job good it will help me a lot."

He also told The Sentinel: “I'm expecting good football. I'm expecting competition that's very tough and I need to be prepared for it."
