There are reports in Spain that La Liga clubs are looking at signing BojanKrkic on a permanent basis. Since the relegation of Stoke City in the Premier League last term, there have been talks of the club selling off players, reducing its wage bill and getting players that reflect their new status.

Stoke loaned Bojan to DeportivoAlaves last summer for the whole of the football season. However, the player is now set to play in Spain on a permanent basis now. At Alaves, he featured in 15 games all season, playing 13 times in the La Liga and twice in the Copa del Rey competition where he scored his sole goal of the season.

Former Real Madrid man Jese Rodriguez is set to return to action for Stoke City, according to reports. The 24-year old Spaniard is back in England and has resumed training. He is expected to play a key role in the concluding part of the season for the Premier League strugglers.

Paul Lambert seems impressed with the club’s summer signing. Jese has not featured for Stoke since the loss to Liverpool on November 29. He started very well with a nice goal against Arsenal on debut in August but he has failed to add more.

The game of football has seen some amazing players play for clubs, gotten at a relatively cheap prices - at various stages in player's careers, rival clubs will always have the chance to evaluate talents to decide if they could go on to make real impact.

Here are some players who eventually went on to prove the Catalan giants wrong after the club failed to retain them.

Bojan Krkic is hoping to return to Premier League side Stoke City following the sack of Mark Hughes. The 27-year old is quite popular among the club fans but Hughes wasn’t totally sold on the Spaniard. Hughes sent Krkic on loan to Spanish side Alaves last summer but the former Barcelona man wants a return to England.

The player has a decent record while at Stoke and he proved he still got it when he scored a stunner against Getafe in the Copa del Rey while in action for Alaves. The player believes he has what it takes to play top level football now that the club needs it more than ever.

Stoke City manager Mark Hughes has stated that he wanted Bojan Krkic to stay with the club for the season. He said that he is a useful player and that he believes that he has a future with Stoke City.

Mark Hughes said that there is no way that he will sell Bojan Krkic at the moment and that he will return to Stoke City after his loan move to Alaves.

It´s pretty surprising just how much chances a talented youngster can get just because of a few impressive appearances in tournaments as well as glimpses of brilliance during their time in the youth academy.

This is basically what has happened with Bojan Krkic as the Spanish attacker made a name for himself during the 2007 U-17 FIFA World Cup; it was one of his 1st top competitions where he could showcase his skills.

Former Barcelona star BojanKrkic has promised to deliver his best at Premier League side Stoke City after he was handed another opportunity this summer.

The Spaniard struggled to find form when he returned from injury last season. He could not hold his spot in Mark Hughes’ team so he was sent on loan to German side Mainz 05.

The 26-year old is set to get another shot in Hughes team in the forthcoming season. The coach praised Bojan’s effort in Germany and added that he hopes for better spell at the Britannia Stadium.

Premier League side Stoke City have offered BojanKrkic a fresh chance to succeed at the club after his time on loan in Germany.

Bojan is expected to star in the team next season, according to reports.

The 26-year old played in the German Bundesliga in January for Mainz 05 but after impressing Stoke decided to hand him more league appearances when the season restarts in August.

Bojan Krkic’s time in Stoke City is likely to be coming to an end as the Spanish player is rumored to be part of a clearance of performers who are going to be offloaded in the summer.

The 26 year old attacker does not have any kind of influential role in the Premier League club; BojanKrkic was even given the pass to join Mainz earlier on January of the ongoing year.

Bojan Krkic reportedly wants to exit the club during this transfer window, if the right offer is tabled.

The 26-year old Spain international was not in the line up when Stoke City clashed with Sunderland on Saturday. The Potters won the game without him after he gave the excuse of a mild discomfort in his hip.
