Pulis predicts busy summer
Stoke manager Tony Pulis believes the big-money moves already made this summer will spark feverish activity in the transfer market.[LNB] Blackburn and Sunderland have each boosted their coffers by around £20million with Rovers selling Phil Jones to Manchester United while Darius Henderson has been lured to Liverpool.[LNB]The only activity at Stoke has seen Abdoulaye Faye and Eidur Gudjohnsen leave the Britannia Stadium after being released by Pulis.[LNB]But the Potters' boss reckons there could be some bids coming in as Blackburn and Sunderland look to re-invest.[LNB]"It's going to be an active market and an expensive market this year," Pulis said.[LNB]"The top six clubs are all looking to spend. That always filters through.[LNB]"Sunderland have sold big, Blackburn have sold big, and there will be other clubs who will have a little bit of money in their pockets to go out and buy players.[LNB]"I expect it to be a very difficult market but a market where there will be a lot of movement."
