Potters splash the cash for Crouch

Stoke have spent a club record £10m to bring in England striker Peter Crouch from Tottenham.

Crouch has signed a four-year deal with the Potters after struggling for first-team opportunities at Spurs of late, and the 6ft 7in forward completed a busy day for Tony Pulis’ team on transfer deadline day, with Wilson Palacios and Cameron Jerome also signing from Spurs and Birmingham respectively.
