Stoke City are reportedly no closer to agreeing a deal with West Bromwich Albion for striker Saido Berahino.

Stoke City and West Bromwich Albion have reportedly reached an impasse in negotiations regarding the potential transfer of Saido Berahino.

Potters boss Mark Hughes is a known admirer of the 22-year-old, while West Brom are prepared to allow the attacker to leave The Hawthorns after a disappointing 12 months in the West Midlands.

However, according to the Express & Star, Stoke will not increase their bid of £16m and West Brom refuse to sell the England Under-21 international for less than £20m.

It is claimed that Hughes feels that he can tempt Berahino to the Britannia Stadium, despite both Southampton and Watford showing an interest in the forward.
