DONE DEAL: Wolves complete sale of Benik Afobe to Stoke

Wolves have completed the sale of Benik Afobe to Stoke City.

Afobe, 12 days after joining Wolves in a £10million deal from Bournemouth, has moved to Stoke City.

Stoke have taken him on loan for six months, with an obligation to purchase the 25-year-old for £12million in January.

Potters boss Gary Rowett said, “He's an excellent character and at 25 he has bags of potential but has already shown what he's all about by scoring a lot of goals.

“He fits the profile of how I want to play in terms of pace, athleticism, flexibility and he certainly has an eye for a goal."
