Stoke City full-back Marc Wilson has claimed that he is "looking forward" to working under new manager Mark Hughes.

The former Queens Park Rangers boss, who was sacked by the R's midway through last season, was appointed as Potters manager on a three-year contract this week.

"I haven't met Mark yet, but in the past, he's done a great job wherever he's been and I'm looking forward to working with him," Sky Sports News quotes Wilson as saying.

"He's done a terrific job wherever he has been. At QPR, he could have been given a bit more time down there. But he's a guy that likes to play football and that's what I like to do anyway, so I am looking forward to it."

Hughes has replaced Tony Pulis, who spent seven years at the Britannia Stadium.
