Stoke City has been making moves in the transfer market to strengthen their squad for the upcoming season. With the recent signing of Ben Gibson from Norwich City and other new faces joining the team, including Viktor Johansson, Eric Bocat, and Sam Gallagher, Stoke is gearing up for a competitive campaign.
However, the Potters are still on the lookout for more additions to bolster their squad depth. Two free agents that Stoke should consider signing are Lorenzo Rajot and Aaron Connolly.
Lorenzo Rajot, a 26-year-old French midfielder, has been making a name for himself in Ligue 2 with Rodez. Known for his creativity and flair in the midfield, Rajot could be a valuable addition to Stoke’s squad, especially with his ability to play in an advanced role. Stoke could benefit from Rajot’s playmaking skills and vision on the field.
Aaron Connolly, a striker who recently parted ways with Hull City, could also be a good fit for Stoke. With Stoke lacking in attacking options, Connolly’s goal-scoring ability and experience in the Championship could provide the team with the depth they need up front. Connolly has shown promise in previous seasons and could be a low-risk, high-reward signing for Stoke.
Both Rajot and Connolly offer unique qualities that could help Stoke push for a top-half finish in the Championship this season. With the transfer window still open, Stoke has the opportunity to secure these free agents and strengthen their squad for the challenges ahead. Adding Rajot and Connolly to the team could be the boost Stoke City needs to compete at a higher level in the upcoming campaign.
