According to the Croydon Advertiser, Stoke are ready to make another bid for Crystal Palace target Saido Berahino.
The report says that Palace made a bid in excess of £20m for Berahino last week, but it was rejected by West Brom as they look for a larger fee.
It is now thought that Stoke are willing to move in and make another bid, presumably more than the £20m Palace offered. Stoke have already had one bid rejected, as they saw a £17m offer turned down by West Brom earlier this summer.
If Palace are determined to sign Berahino, then they will now need to outbid Stoke with another club-record bid.
Berahino has just one year left on his West Brom contract and is eager to leave the club, after rejecting terms on a new four-year deal at the Hawthorns.
Palace are looking to strengthen in the forward department this summer and Berahino is a major target.
