Stoke City FC transfer news and rumours: Premier League side set to beat Aston Villa and Norwich to Amiens midfielder

Stoke City are leading Aston Villa and Norwich in the race for Amiens star Guessouma Fofana.

The midfielder has been impressing in Ligue 2 this season and he is now on the radar of several English clubs.

Championship pair Aston Villa and Norwich are both interested in the 24-year-old and they have made initial contact with Amiens over a transfer.

But, according to Le Courrier Picard, Stoke are leading the race for Fofana and hope to tie up a deal during the January transfer window.

The Potters, like Aston Villa and Norwich, have been scouting the Frenchman too and they are now ready to make their move.
