Keane: Unhappy with Stoke

Sunderland boss Roy Keane has blasted Stoke over their treatment of transfer target Marton Fulop.

The Potters looked set to sign the goalkeeper after agreeing a fee with the North East club for the Hungarian earlier this month.

However, Stoke were unable to agree personal terms with Fulop and they pulled out of the deal before signing Thomas Sorensen on a free transfer.

Fulop has now been forced to return to the Stadium of Light and Keane is furious at how Stoke have conducted themselves in the whole episode.

"They took him for a trial, made him an offer and he asked for a bit more - but they said that's it," Keane told The Sun.

"It's a bloody disgrace to treat a player like that."
