West Brom captain Darren Fletcher joins Stoke on free transfer

Stoke have announced the signing of Scotland midfielder Darren Fletcher on a free transfer from West Bromwich Albion.

Fletcher, 33, has signed a two-year deal and will join the club next month when the transfer window opens.

Fletcher had been in contract talks with the Baggies, having triggered a one-year option in his favour earlier this season, but has opted not to extend his two-and-a-half-year stay.
