The Potters are stuck at the foot of table on goal difference after a 1-0 loss to Everton at the weekend.

It is thought Bony, who impressed at Swansea City before moving to the Etihad for £28million in January of last year, would be open to the move because it means his family can stay in Manchester.

Bony is one of at least four stars set to exit the Etihad under a radical shake-up brought in by new boss Pep Guardiola.

SunSport told you how West Ham and Everton are also interested in bringing in Bony, who bagged eight goals last season but is yet to get any game time this campaign.

All three clubs are willing to bankroll his £90,000-a-week wages before he leaves for China in January.

And Bony is to have the final say in any transfer because Etihad chiefs are happy to let him decide his future.
