Stoke signing Diouf excited playing for Hughes

Mame Biram Diouf is excited to be playing for Stoke City boss Mark Hughes.

Diouf, who left Manchester United in 2012 after failing to make an impression at Old Trafford, says having a former striker of some repute as his manager at Stoke is an added bonus.

He explained to The Sentinel: "It's a challenge to come back to the Premier League and it is good I am starting with Stoke.

"It is always good to have a manager who knows all about football. I am just going to learn and listen to what he is saying and try to put it into the games."
