Stoke interested in Nani despite Valencia competition

Mark Hughes' assistant says Stoke City is hopeful of bringing Nani back to the Premier League.

Stoke City is interested in signing Nani and hopes the lure of the Premier League can entice him to choose it over Valencia, says assistant manager Mark Bowen.

Nani has impressed in a more central role at Euro 2016, scoring twice and supplying two assists in Portugal's run to the semifinals.

The 29-year-old was a Champions League and four-time Premier League winner during his time at Manchester United and last week spoke of his desire to play in England again.
