Stoke City eye former Bayern Munich striker as key transfer target

Stoke City remains active in the transfer window, now turning their attention to one of the most prominent players in Sweden’s top league. The club, under the guidance of manager Mark Robbins, is keen on securing an offensive talent to fill a crucial gap in the squad.

This comes after the team’s past struggles under previous coaches Narcis Pelach and Steven Schumacher, who, despite bringing some positive moments, couldn't fully address the underlying issues.

In search of Swedish talent that can make a positive impact on Toronto FC

Stoke City's search has led them to Alex Timossi Andersson, currently playing for IF Brommapojkarna in Sweden's Allsvenskan. Andersson, who previously developed in Bayern Munich’s youth system, has shown significant promise in the Swedish league.

His current season with IF Brommapojkarna is impressive, having played 30 matches, scoring 4 goals, and providing one assist. His ability to perform on both flanks adds to his value, making him a versatile and strategic option for Stoke City.

High Expectations for the Transfer

Andersson’s performances have caught the eye of Stoke City’s management, and negotiations to secure the 23-year-old are reportedly underway.

His potential signing is seen as a key move to bolster the team's offensive options and fill the void left by previous departures. With ongoing discussions expected to advance in the coming week, Stoke City fans could soon see Andersson making his mark at the club, as Robbins aims to strengthen the squad and push for better results in the remainder of the season.

The EFL Championship continues and Stoke City's next match is against West Brom Albion, taking into account that it is a very important matchday, where they must prove to be a strong team and obtain a positive result, otherwise they want to jeopardise their relegation for next season.
