Jese Rodriguez could make his Stoke debut in Saturday's late Premier League game against Arsenal.

The former Real Madrid striker, who this week sealed a loan move from Paris Saint-Germain, is available for the Saturday evening kick-off and manager Mark Hughes has indicated he wants all of his summer signings to be involved.

That suggests Bruno Martins Indi, Darren Fletcher, Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting, Josh Tymon and Kurt Zouma will all play some part.

However, Arsenal will once again be without Alexis Sanchez, who remains sidelined with an abdominal injury.

Arsene Wenger confirmed this week there has been no progress over contract talks with the forward, who has been linked with a move away from the Emirates during the transfer window.

Arsenal defender Laurent Koscielny will miss the match as he serves the last of a three-game ban.

Shkodran Mustafi, Per Mertesacker and Francis Coquelin should all be available after missing the 4-3 win over Leicester last Friday.

Stoke forward Julien Ngoy looks set for up to six weeks on the sidelines with a thigh problem. while Ibrahim Afellay (knee) and Stephen Ireland (broken leg) continue to recover from long-term injuries.
