Peter Crouch has revealed that he is eager to stay at Stoke City for the foreseeable future.

The England international has become a regular in the side under Mark Hughes, and he is hoping to sign a new deal with the Potters before his current contract expires next summer.

"I'm happy here - probably happier than I've ever been anywhere," the 33-year-old, who moved to Stoke from Tottenham Hotspur in 2011, told reporters.

"I've loved every minute of it here and still am. I'm in my fourth season, which does seem a bit strange because I've moved around a lot more than I would have liked.

"I'd like to extend my stay and I still feel I've got a lot to offer. I honestly feel like I'm a better player now than when they signed me for a lot of money."

Crouch and his Stoke teammates are back in action against Swansea City on Sunday afternoon.
