Brighton’s Leo Ostigard is set to make his debut for Stoke City tonight (7:45pm) in their Carabao Cup tie against League One side Fleetwood at the bet365 stadium.
Michael O’ Neil said: “Leo is keen to develop and improve by playing first-team football and we are delighted to have secured his services because he was attracting a great deal of interest after doing so well for Coventry. His arrival strengthens our defensive resources and I’ve no doubts he will be a key addition to our squad.”
The 21-year-old joined the Potters from Albion on a season-long loan after signing a new one-year deal at the Seagulls prior to leaving. But the Norwegian was registered in time to make his Stoke debut tonight. The last time he played at the bet365 stadium he was on the winning side as he picked up an assist for Coventry in their 3-2 win over the Potters in April, with former Albion striker Viktor Gyokeres scoring the winner. Stoke boss Michael O’Neill was delighted to have signed Ostigard.
