According to the Daily Express, the Bosnian will turn down a move to Spurs and Inter Milan to stay with the Potters.

The keeper, who has just passed 50 clean sheets in his time with Stoke, is quoted as saying “Getting to 50 clean sheets is a good figure to have. It is a good personal achievement for me and shows how long I have been here.”

“I have been lucky enough to play with a lot of good guys who throw their bodies on the line every week to help keep those clean sheets. It’s been a team effort and hopefully I can go on and claim 50 more clean sheets here. We all want to be successful players and we all want to challenge for and win titles and trophies. We are moving in a good direction and I am happy to be part of that.”

“Achieving what we have done has been great but we want to achieve more than that and keep setting ourselves bigger targets.”

Stoke currently sit tenth in the table with 42 points and a place in next season’s Europa League is very much achievable.
