Stoke City complete Ibrahim Afellay signing

Stoke City have completed the signing of former Barcelona forward Ibrahim Afellay on a free transfer.

The Netherlands international was a free agent following his release from Barcelona earlier this summer.

Sky Sports News has earlier reported that the 29-year-old was undergoing a medical at Stoke ahead of his proposed transfer to the Potters.

It has now been confirmed by the very source that the talented winger has signed a two-year contract at the Britannia Stadium following a successful medical test.

Afellay struggled to make an impact at Barcelona and was shipped out on loan to Schalke 04 and Olympiakos in recent seasons.
