Wales winger Thomas signs for Stoke

Stoke City have signed Wales international winger Sorba Thomas.

The 26-year-old, who has 17 caps for his country, spent last season on loan at Ligue 1 side Nantes from Huddersfield Town, a deal which included an option to buy.

His stay in France was marred by an instance of racist abuse on social media, after he had been replaced despite only going on as a substitute in the 80th minute of a match against RC Lens in November.

Thomas made 25 appearances for Nantes scoring one goal, against St Etienne, as he helped Les Canaris to a 13th-place finish.
