Stoke City have completed the signing of Mark Travers on loan from Bournemouth for the 2023-24 campaign.

The 24-year-old goalkeeper found himself behind Neto in the pecking order at the Vitality Stadium last season and has been deemed surplus to requirements by new boss Andoni Iraola for the upcoming campaign.

Travers will now spend the season back in the Championship, where he won the Golden Glove and Bournemouth's Player of the Season award while helping the Cherries to promotion in 2021-22.

"This is a great opportunity to test myself in the Championship again and I am pleased to have had the interest from Stoke City," Travers told the club website upon joining.

"It is a chance for me to play for a great manager at a really exciting time for the club, especially with the new signings that are arriving.

"I have heard good things about the club from players here now – including Ben Pearson and Enda Stevens - and others who have played here before.

"I feel like this is an exciting project and the next step in my career. The season is only just around the corner and I cannot wait to get going."

Technical Director Ricky Martin added: "For a goalkeeper of his age to have already achieved what he has in the game is rare and remarkable.

"He has featured in international football, played in the Premier League and – perhaps most importantly – was a standout performer when Bournemouth got promoted a couple of seasons ago.

"There was of course a keen interest in Mark from other clubs, so we're delighted that he's chosen to come to Stoke City."

Travers could feature for his new team for the first when they face Everton in a pre-season friendly on Saturday, before the Potters open their Championship campaign at home to Rotherham United the following weekend.
