Iffy hears the news that it's Stoke that want to buy him...
A source from inside The Den has revealed exclusively to Millwall Mad that Paul Ifill has been sold to Stoke City for a fee in the region of £850,000. However the deal is dependent on certain conditions that were not revealed and may yet collapse.

If all goes to plan, the move will be rubber stamped the day after the transfer window re-opens for Football League clubs and will see Ifill end his eight-year association with the club.

Stoke manager Tony Pulis has been after the winger all season but has already had two bids turned down - including a last ditch attempt to sign him on transfer deadline day. However, while current Chairman Theo Paphitis refused to sell Ifill, it appears that his successor, Jeff Burnige, has no such qualms, despite manager Dennis Wise requesting otherwise.
