Stoke have emerged as the latest club to be showing signs of interest in West Ham midfielder Scott Parker.

Reports today suggest the ambitious Potters are lining up an £8m bid for the 29-year-old.

Parker has been in excellent form since his return from injury, and with West Ham struggling financially, they may be forced to listen to offers.

Stoke manager Tony Pulis has been promised funds for the January transfer window, but will face competition from Tottenham and Liverpool if he is to sign the former Charlton and Chelsea star.
