Stoke close in on deal
Stoke City are said to be closing in on a deal to sign Rotherham United goalkeeper Viktor Johansson. Johansson is an attractive prospect heading into this summer having been one of the only bright sparks in a Millers side that finished rock bottom in the second tier.
According to John Percy, Stoke are now set to snap up the keeper on a deal worth around £1million. It’s reported that Johansson will have a medical on Friday ahead of completing his move to the Bet365 Stadium.
