In this transfer window, rumors have emerged that several teams in the EFL are interested in Lewis Barker. His future remains uncertain for the upcoming season, despite participating in Stoke City's preseason.

Barker joined Stoke City from Chelsea after beginning his career with the London club. Although he couldn't secure a place in the two-time Champions League-winning team, he ended up at Stoke City.

Currently, Barker's contract runs until June 2025, but it seems he may not renew with The Potters. As a result, the club might be looking to offload this excellent player to gain some financial benefit rather than letting him leave for free next season.

Lewis Barker's Performance Since His Arrival in the 21-22 Season

Lewis Barker has performed well for Stoke City. In his debut season, he played 21 matches, scoring 8 goals and providing 2 assists, becoming a key player with great expectations for his future at the club.

However, his form gradually declined, leading to a disappointing 23-24 season. He played 22 matches, scoring only 3 goals and failing to register any assists.

Currently, it is rumored that Stoke City is asking for 2.5 million euros for the English player. At 29, Barker still has a lot to offer in his career. Several EFL and Championship teams are very interested in him. In the coming weeks, we'll find out the fate of this player, as it remains unclear if Steve Schumacher includes him in his future plans or if Barker will move on to play for another club next season.

Meanwhile, The Potters are also focusing on identifying potential midfielders to strengthen their squad for the challenging EFL Championship season ahead.
