Wilfried Bony has joined the Potters on a season-long loan from the Citizens following an underwhelming stay at the club that saw him become the third choice striker last season even behind teenage sensation, Iheanacho. Opportunities would be far and few this season with the signing of Nolito.
“Bringing Wilfried in was a no-brainer for us to be perfectly honest, because he knows the Premier League and has scored plenty of goals at this level, he has power, speed and very good physical attributes which will undoubtedly help us, and his technical and finishing skills are outstanding too."
“Eighteen months ago he was being bought for a hugely significant amount of money, so we know that we are bringing in a top quality striker. Everybody is aware of Wilfried and what he is capable of, and it was no surprise that one of the bigger clubs came in for him on the back of his performances for Swansea – the only surprise has been that he didn’t enjoy the success with Manchester City that we all thought he would.”
He joined City in 2014 making 46 appearances and scoring 11 goals.
