Stoke City has tabled a €3.6 million offer for the New York City FC midfielder, multiple sources have confirmed to Ives Galarcep, and has since been verified by a multitude of other outlets.

Stoke City is currently locked in a relegation fight, having recently appointed Paul Lambert as its new manager. The Potters climbed out of the relegation zone after Saturday's 2-0 win against Huddersfield Town.
