The 9 Stoke City players likely to exit from June onwards

With the end of the Championship season fast approaching, Stoke City may already be beginning to decide which players they wish to move on in the summer.

It’s been another dismal season for the Potters so far, and they could yet be relegated to League One.

The halcyon days of Premier League football at the Bet365 Stadium seem a long time ago, with the club yet to finish in the top half of the second tier since relegation in 2018.

Despite being backed by the wealthy Coates family, Stoke have struggled to recruit well in recent years, with many signings failing to make an impact.

With this in mind, Steven Schumacher – or whoever may be in charge at the club come the summer – face a big job in rebuilding the squad despite a huge turnover of the playing staff occuring in the summer just gone.

Here are the NINE players Stoke City are likely to move on or lose from June onwards.

Enda Stevens

Irish international Stevens joined Stoke on a one-year deal after the expiry of his contract at Sheffield United.

However, the left-back has struggled to make an impact at the club thanks to injury, despite starting the club’s first five league games of the season.

Stevens turns 34 in the summer, and it would be poor business by the club to extend his deal given his injury woes this season.
