According to Mercato 365, French club Lille are targeting Stoke City striker Bojan.

Lille may have to sign a new striker this summer as they prepare for the possible departures of Alassane Plea and Mario Balotelli.

Stoke are likely to be willing to listen to bids for the Spanish international this summer after their relegation from the Premier League last season.

Since joining the Potters in 2014, Bojan has not had the desired impact and has managed just 15 goals from 62 appearances in all competitions.

Stoke may be looking to get him of their wage bill this summer.

Bojan is a product of Barcelona’s esteemed youth development system and even went on to make more than 100 La Liga appearances for the Spanish giants.

He was once touted to go on an become a global superstar but has failed to live up to expectations.

He could be an appealing target for Lille as he is likely to be affordable and is very experienced at the highest level. However, it does remain to be seen whether he will be able to help Patrick Viera’s side challenge for a place in European football.
