Stoke City have parted company with midfielder Daniel Johnson by mutual consent.
The 31-year-old midfielder still had 10 months left to run on the two-year deal he signed when he joined the Potters in July 2023, to be reunited with then Stoke boss Alex Neil, who he played under at Deepdale for four years.
Johnson made 19 Championship starts for Stoke, but had only played in the EFL Cup win at Carlisle United, as well as making a late sub appearance in the league, this season.
鈥淒aniel鈥檚 minutes on the field have been limited since the latter part of last season," said Stoke sporting director Jonathan Walters.
"We have mutually decided it is in his and the club鈥檚 best interests to part ways."
After leaving boyhood club Aston Villa in 2015, Jamaica international Johnson made 336 North End appearances before joining Stoke at the end of his contract.
