Stoke City reportedly plan to table an improved bid for West Bromwich Albion winger James McClean next week.

Stoke City will reportedly complete the signing of West Bromwich Albion winger James McClean next week.

The Baggies are said to have rejected a Potters bid of £4m for the Republic of Ireland international but, according to the Stoke Sentinel, they are now willing to meet the Championship outfit's valuation.

West Brom are said to be holding out for £6m for the 29-year-old, who joined the club from Wigan Athletic three seasons ago.

New Stoke head coach Gary Rowett has attempted to sign McClean before, tabling a £6m bid for the midfielder while he was manager of Derby County.

McClean would become Stoke's fourth summer signing under Rowett.
