Stoke complete Federici signing after Grant joins Man Utd

Adam Federici has joined the club from Bournemouth on a two-year-deal following the shock departure of the 35-year-old

Stoke City have announced the signing of experienced goalkeeper Adam Federici on a two-year deal from Bournemouth.

The Australian is the Potters' third signing of the off-season after Oghenekaro Etebo and Benik Afobe’s arrival at the club.

Federici joins after Manchester United completed the signing of Stoke’s second choice goalkeeper Lee Grant, and the former Socceroos stopper could become the club’s number one, depending on how the future of Jack Butland pans out.

"Adam [Federici] is a player with bags of experience, with Reading notably and Bournemouth as well," manager Gary Rowett told the club’s website.
