Stoke confirm Joselu deal

Stoke City have confirmed a deal with Hannover for the signing of former Real Madrid youngster Joselu.

The striker left Santiago Bernabeu in 2012, signing for Hoffenheim, before a loan spell at Eintracht Frankfurt.

Joselu signed for Hannover a year ago and after 10 goals in 32 games is set for the Premier League in what reports from England say is a £7.3m [€10m] transfer.

The 25-year-old, who made two appearances for the Madrid senior side, scoring once, and also spent time with Celta Vigo, joins Marc Muniesa and Bojan Krkic as Spaniards in Mark Hughes’ squad.
