Stoke City’s Joselu signed for Deportivo La Coruna at the start of the season, but a knee injury sustained on his debut kept him out of action until November.
According to La Voz de Galicia, Stoke City are reluctant to sell Joselu for less than £8m. Deportivo tried to negotiate a buying clause in his contract in the summer, but the Premier League side refused.
There was a new attempt by Deportivo to make his deal permanent, but there was a negative response from the Premier League side. Stoke City signed Joselu for €8m from Hannover 96, and are not ready to budge on their value.
It’s been reported Deportivo are also not ready to give up, and will make a fresh attempt next summer.
Joselu’s wages could also be an issue, as Stoke City are currently paying a percentage. The Spaniard has a contract until 2019 at Stoke City, and a lot could also be dependent on what he wants at the end of the season.
