John Guidetti has joined Stoke City on loan until the end of the season.

The 21-year-old Swede has only made one appearance for the Blues so far but spent a successful spell on loan with Feyenoord during the 2011/12 campaign, scoring 20 goals in 23 games for the Eredivisie side.

Prior to that, Guidetti was on loan for a month at Burnley in late 2010.

Signed as a 16-year-old in 2007 by Sven-Goran Eriksson, Guidetti spent much of last season sidelined by injury problems, but the striker will now look to prove his worth at the Britannia Stadium where he joins former City midfielder Stephen Ireland and manager Mark Hughes.

He has agreed a deal with the Potters that will expire on 30 June, 2014. We will keep you informed of Guidettiā€™s progress in our Loan Watch series.
