Jimmy Dickinson (Head of recruitment)Rumours

Jimmy Dickinson (Head of recruitment) to Stoke. To replace their sacked head of recruitment Jared Dublin.

Dublin, 32, joined the Potters from Reading in June 2023, having previously spent almost six years at Sheffield United.

But, despite making 25 signings, Stoke had a poor season, finishing 17th in the Championship.

It was inevitable he would be off in the summer regardless if it was stoke or not. The club should have had one or two people lined up to bring in quick should he go so the new guys summer preps and incomings arent affected too much. The club must also insisted on all files on players jimmy has be handed over too so he doesnt start signing players using data he got here,
