Mark Hughes has revealed that Saido Berahino is edging closer to making his first Premier League start up front for Stoke City when they face Tottenham Hotspur.

“There’s a chance of him starting on Sunday,” Hughes told stokecityfc.com.

“We’re two weeks down the road since the last game and he’s in better shape physically and he’s more integrated into the group as a consequence of going to Dubai and the work we did out there.”
