Stoke City boss Tony Pulis is content to remain patient in his efforts to strengthen his Potters squad this summer.
Rumours of a number of comings and goings from the Britannia Stadium are doing the rounds, with Pulis playing a waiting game to try and secure his top targets.
He told the club's official website:"It's the phoney season with transfers at the moment, so there is a lot going on beneath the surface, but few people are making a move.
"We are aware of who is and who isn't available, but agents and players are still dipping their toes in the water and not committing themselves just yet. That will change as time goes on.
"It's just a case of everyone being patient and then hoping we can get who we want when people start making firm decisions."Subscribe to Football FanCast News Headlines by Email
