Given close to Stoke move as Hull dismiss Brady offer as ‘embarrassing’
The Republic of Ireland international looked set to rejoin Middlesbrough, where he spent three months on loan during the 2013/14 season, but the opportunity to remain in the Premier League has seen him opt to sign for Mark Hughes’ side.
It is understood that the Donegal native has undergone a medical at the Potters and a deal is close to completion as Aston Villa secured a replacement for Given, signing goalkeeper Mark Bunn on a free transfer following his release from Norwich City.
