Stoke City face cashing in on goalkeeper Asmir Begovic at the end of the season.
The Sun says Potters boss Tony Pulis insists he was under no pressure to let the Bosnian star, 25, go when he snapped up Jack Butland from Birmingham in January.
But the Potters have been in freefall ever since and are battling to avoid going down to the Championship.
And relegation will put the Potters under pressure to cash in on the former Portsmouth No 1.
Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool and Manchester United are all interested in Begovic.
