Portsmouth skipper Marc Wilson is on the verge of joining Stoke - with Dave Kitson and Liam Lawrence poised to move in the opposite direction.[LNB] Pompey have agreed a fee for Wilson - believed to be around £2.5million - with the Potters, and hope to land striker Kitson and winger Lawrence as part of the deal.[LNB]"The deal has been agreed with Stoke," boss Steve Cotterill told The News.[LNB]"Marc has more or less agreed terms up there and we are very close with getting one across the line but the other one still has a little way to travel.[LNB]"That is just down to logistics. We have spoken to one of them but the other one was a day later. It is harder for us to get two players across the line than it is for Stoke to get one."[LNB]Cotterill has also shrugged off reported late interest in Wilson from West Ham, who are managed by former Pompey chief Avram Grant.
