Joselu is still hopeful of leaving Stoke before the transfer window closes on deadline day.
A potential move depends now on his club agreeing terms with Deportivo La Coruna who are interested in the striker.
It is thought a prospective switch would start as a loan leading to a permanent transfer to the La Liga side.
The striker recognises that his chances at Stoke will be limited following Wilfried Bony's arrival and the Spanish side are keen to take him.
