Stoke City

Stoke City are set to win the race for Manchester City's Liam Delap, who is also a target of West Bromwich Albion.

Delap only put pen-to-paper on a new deal at the Etihad Stadium last month and will now be hoping to take his game to the next level on the back of regular game time under O’Neill. Manchester City see Delap having a future at the club and have not agreed to include a purchase option in the deal to send him to Stoke. And the Potters have now won the race for Delap as they have reached an agreement with the Premier League champions over a loan deal for him.

Manchester City youngster Liam Delap is set to follow in his father's footsteps and play for Stoke City this season.

"Ultimately, from their perspective, the loan is about the player's development. "We had Taylor Harwood-Bellis here last year and we know the relationship exists there. He has a contract at City until 2026 and has made six senior appearances for the Blues, scoring once.

Live match updates as Middlesbrough take on Stoke City at the bet365 Stadium in the Championship.

Just seeing a replay of the goal now. Ball crossed in but it's heading to Steffen. Mowatt with a great pass to an advancing McNair who flicks a header to Jones. Bossed the majority of that half possession wise and Stoke's goal is a howler from the ref. Stoke is not the best ground to upset the away fans. As he leaves the pitch, those 1,300+ Boro fans make clear what they think about him after that Jones decision in the build-up to Stoke's opener. Very definition of body on the line. Boro deserve to be ahead. Boro fail to clear their lines, ball goes back in and Wright-Phillips is free in between Dijksteel and Jones to head home from close range. Tries the right-footed curler and Bursik makes an excellent save to tip it round the post. Boro keeping the pressure on. Stoke could be the ideal opportunity as a side who've lost two of their opening three games.

From a late Potters attack in stoppage time, Boro failed to clear their lines which invited them in for last cross into the box.
