Stoke have revived talks over a £10million move for Manchester City midfielder Fabian Delph.

Leicester City had also asked about Delph but he is keen to link up with Mark Hughes who is poised to offload midfield misfit Giannelli Imbula to Toulouse.

Delph has had limited opportunities since joining Manchester City and may look for regular football elsewhere having missed out on the most recent England squad.

Stoke City have revived talks with Manchester City over a £10million move for Fabian Delph

The midfielder moved to the Etihad Stadium two years ago for £8million but he has struggled with injuries and form.

Stoke City have already been busy in the transfer market this summer, with Kevin Wimmer becoming the latest signing for the Potters, but they are keen to add Delph to their growing list of in-comings.

And it appears the changes are not set to stop there, with Malaga seemingly interested in striker Bojan Krkic.
