Paul Eaton 25 January 2007
Salif Diao has brought his Liverpool career to an end and signed for Stoke City until the end of the season.
The Senegal midfielder has spent the last three months on loan at the Britannia Stadium and has now agreed to stay with the Championship outfit for the rest of the campaign.
"We have had a nervous few weeks waiting to get the paperwork sorted out to get Salif here," said boss Tony Pulis.
"But we are very relived to finally get him here on a permanent basis. You only have to look at the amount of points we gathered while he was here to see what an important player he is to this football club."
Diao signed for Liverpool in the summer of 2002 and went on to make 59 appearances for the Reds, scoring three goals.
