Report Claims Huddersfield Made Deadline Day Attempt to Sign Relegated Star

Huddersfield Town failed in a deadline day attempt to sign Stoke City forward Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting, as the Terriers attempted to add firepower to their squad late on.

According to reports from the Daily Mail's live blog, which tracked Thursday's Premier League deadline day activity, Choupo-Moting rejected the chance to join Huddersfield in the hope for a move to a bigger side.

Choupo-Moting was one of several players given permission by Stoke to find new clubs this summer following relegation from the Premier League, with Charlie Adam and Gianelli Imbula also hoping for moves away from Stoke.
