Anzhi Makhachkala poised to make Kenwyne Jones bid

Russian side Anzhi Makhachkala are preparing a bid for Stoke City striker Kenwyne Jones.

The 27-year-old from Trinidad has started just eight Premier League games this season, following the £10m arrival of Peter Crouch from Tottenham Hotspur.

Potters manager Tony Pulis is said to be looking to reduce the club's wage bill in the summer and would allow Jones to leave the Britannia Stadium for £5m, according to The Sun.

It is also likely that Jonathan Woodgate and Ricardo Fuller will be allowed to leave on free transfers at the end of the season.
