According to reports in The Telegraph, Stoke City are set to confirm the surprise signing of Paris Saint-Germain forward Jese Rodriguez on Tuesday.

The Telegraph says that the 24-year-old completed a medical on Monday and will move to the Britannia Stadium on a season-long loan deal in what is a huge coup for Potters boss Mark Hughes.

The report adds that the former Real Madrid attacker has turned down interest from the likes of Serie A side Fiorentina to move to the Premier League.
