Talks planned: Stoke City move for attacking coach to replace Schumacher

According to John Percy, Stoke City has already started the process of replacing departing coach Steven Schumacher with an attack-oriented coach. Schumacher fired as manager of Stoke The Potters in the Championship haven’t had the most spectacular start to the season; at the moment,

In addition, he might feel like a new hire considering his age, and Percy suggests that if negotiations go well, he might bring goalkeeping coach Paul Clements along.

Given his lack of managerial experience, there would be a risk factor with Pelach, but up-and-coming young
