Wilson |
In the words of the late great Victor Meldrew "I don't believe it".
Stoke City spare part Wilson Palacios is on the verge of a move to Premier League rivals Aston Villa, according to reports in Honduras. This despite Villa's recent capture of Carlos Sanchez.
The 30-year-old midfielder had been (unbelievably) linked with a switch to Villa Park before but seemed set to be heading to Qatar earlier this summer.
That deal collapsed amid reports the former Wigan and Spurs man had failed a medical.
Stoke chiefs are reported to have been working with Palacios's agent to see what options are available before the end of the summer transfer window.
Update: Mark Hughes has (hooray) pour cold water on this story:"I'm not aware of that interest," he said. "He had an opportunity to go to Qatar which would have been good for him but that fell through.
"We like him as a person and a player but sometimes it's right to move on.
"Interest from other Premier League clubs is not something I'm aware of."
