WINFRED BONY FOR STOKE
Thursday 1st September 2016
A deal we've not mentioned yet today is Wilfried Bony's season-long loan move from Manchester City to Stoke. And Sky Sports pundit Charlie Nicholas thinks it is a "fabulous" deal for all involved.
Bony secured a short-term move away from the Etihad on Deadline Day after struggling for first-team football under Pep Guardiola, and Nicholas believes he will impress at the Bet365 Stadium.
"I think it's a fabulous move for both, for Stoke and for Bony," he told Sky Sports News HQ. "Bony for me - strength, power, pace, everything, and I think he should have his hunger back to say 'I want to be established again'.
"I think Mark Hughes has a lovely footballing team, a lot of good players there, I think he'll fit in perfectly. It might take a couple of games. I think it's a fabulous deal for both involved here."
