Jack Harrison has taken the long way round in his pursuit of Premier League football.

The 21-year-old enjoyed spells in the Liverpool and Manchester United academy but has made his name across the Atlantic instead, emerging as one of the biggest talents in the MLS with New York City.

The report states that Stoke City made an offer of around £3.25 million which was rejected by New York City, but the Potters have now launched another bid for a talented winger recently called up to the England under-21 side for the first time.
