Republic of Ireland U21 international Bosun Lawal is closing in on a move to Stoke City after they agreed a £2-3million deal with Celtic.

Despite enjoying a productive pre-season with Brendan Rodgers' side, the Scottish giants accepted a bid from Stoke and the 21-year-old defender, who was called up to the Ireland senior set-up for the friendly against Hungary in June, is set to have his medical with the Potters on Friday afternoon.
