Slovakia international midfielder Tomas Rigo has joined Stoke City from Banik Ostrava for an undisclosed fee.

The 23-year-old scored five goals in 65 league games for the Czech side and has five international caps.

Rigo has signed a four-year contract with the Championship club and becomes the Potters' 11th summer signing.

"I am thankful that Stoke were very patient and worked hard to make this transfer happen," he told the club website.

"I am so excited to be here; there is a lot of tradition and history in this club and I want to be a part of a successful new journey."

Stoke have a 100% win record across their first three Championship games this season and face West Bromwich Albion on Saturday.
