Stoke City Issued Urgent Warning as Man City Star Emerges—Ipswich Looms and Cannon’s Deal Raises the Stakes

Stoke City are exploring a loan move for Manchester City’s rising star Divin Mubama, who impressed with 17 goals in 13 Premier League 2 games last season. With Ipswich Town also in the hunt for the 20-year-old striker, the Potters face stiff competition. Mubama, who joined City from West Ham last summer, has made only two senior appearances but scored on his debut under Pep Guardiola. FLW’s Sam Harrison believes the potential deal could shake up Stoke’s forward line, especially with young talents like Emre Tezgel and Nathan Lowe waiting in the wings. Drawing comparisons to Tom Cannon’s successful loan spell, Harrison suggests Stoke could benefit from repeating a similar formula—if the financials work out.

Jamie Vardy’s departure from Leicester City at the end of the season has sparked speculation about his next move, with Lee Hendrie suggesting that a return to boyhood club Sheffield Wednesday could be an ideal fit. Despite a challenging season in the Premier League, Hendrie believes Vardy’s goal-scoring instincts and experience still make him a valuable asset, particularly for a Championship side. With Sheffield Wednesday potentially undergoing ownership changes and aiming for an upward trajectory, the chance to finish his illustrious career where his footballing journey began might prove too tempting for Vardy to resist.

As the season draws to a close, Oxford United and Stoke City are among the teams looking to escape the looming threat of relegation. Oxford, currently 17th with 48 points, has gained crucial momentum with three wins in their last five matches, putting them six points clear of the bottom three. Their upcoming Easter fixtures give them a chance to secure survival, with a pivotal clash against Cardiff City on Easter Monday. A win in that match could put them nine points ahead of Cardiff, virtually guaranteeing their safety.

Stoke City, sitting just one place below Oxford in 18th with 47 points, breathed a sigh of relief after a late win over Cardiff. With a five-point gap above the relegation zone, they now face a challenging set of fixtures, including tough away games against Leeds United and Sheffield United. The team will need to pick up points from their upcoming matches, with their best-case scenario being that teams currently in the bottom three fail to make up ground, allowing Stoke to breathe easier as they head into their final stretch.
