Stoke City have finalised a deal to bring in teenage forward Adriel Walker from West Bromwich Albion.

The 19 year old has signed an 18-month contract after spending the past nine years at the Albion academy and will join Stoke's under-21s team under Dave Hibbert.

Last season, he netted nine goals for Albion's under-18s before moving up to their under-21s squad this season.

This is Stoke's second signing for the under-21s since deadline day, following the confirmation of a deal for Manchester United midfielder Ruben Curley yesterday.

In a 4-2 Central League victory over Huddersfield Town at Clayton Wood on Tuesday afternoon, Stoke also had a promising forward on trial who caught the attention of manager Mark Robins, sporting director Jon Walters and academy director Gareth Owen.

The under-21s will return to action on Monday when they host Crystal Palace at Clayton Wood (2.30pm).
