Denmark international Sorensen has made 87 appearances for Stoke City<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n

<\/p>\n

Stoke City manager Tony Pulis has confirmed the club have opened contract talks with goalkeeper Thomas Sorensen.<\/b><\/p>\n

“We’re talking with Thomas now to try and get another contract sorted out,” Pulis told BBC Radio Stoke. <\/p>\n

“He’s keen to get something done. We’ve spoken to his agent and the club will try and get something sorted out.” <\/p>\n

The Denmark international, 34, joined on a free transfer from Aston Villa in the summer of 2008 but has not started a Premier League game since 24 October. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Asmir Begovic replaced Sorensen following the 2-1 home defeat to Manchester United and has started the last 19 league matches. <\/p>\n

Sorensen, however, has started all four of Stoke’s FA Cup ties during their run to the last eight, where they will face West Ham at the Britannia Stadium on 13 March.<\/p>\n

The Potters also have former Preston, Wigan and Everton stopper Carlo Nash in their squad and Pulis is pleased with the goalkeepers at his disposal. <\/p>\n

“We think we’ve got three good goalkeepers,” continued the Stoke boss. “You know what goalkeepers are like, they love to stick together. <\/p>\n

“They’ve been competitive, obviously Thomas is disappointed at not playing, but the three of them are good for one another.” <\/p>\n

Begovic, 23, earned rave reviews for his performance in the 1-1 draw against West Bromwich Albion on Monday. <\/p>\n

Former Stoke and England goalkeeper Gordon Banks has been impressed with the Bosnia international and believes he has a bright future. <\/p>\n

The 1966 World Cup winner told BBC Radio Stoke: “If he’s playing as well as this and he keeps on doing that, in two or three years time he will be something very special. <\/p>\n

“There’s some excellent goalkeepers around this country but if he keeps this standard up he’ll be up there with them, definitely.”\n<\/p>\n
